Apart from that, the scent of saffron and saunf  helps release endorphins or the ‘happy hormone’, helping you feel happy and calm.

3. Is an instant pick-me-up: Milk, with all its nutrients when combined with sugar is an instant pick-me-up. So after that long day of wedding rituals this drink is perfect to help you have more energy and some fun between the sheets.

4. Helps give your immunity a boost: Laced with turmeric, pepper and saunf, the concoction has potent antibacterial and immune boosting properties. Why is this necessary?

5. Helps build proximity: A great way to help your man gently graze against your hand as he takes the glass from you , the glass of warm milk was a way to help increase proximity.
