    Arrowroot milk or koova kachiyathu is a traditional drink of Kera la. It is a very good energy drink for kids and it contains lots of vitamins and minerals. Arrowroot has lots of medicinal benefits. It is good for digestive problems and urinary infection. Arrowroot also increases immunity power in kids. There are mainly two varieties of arrowroot wild arrowroot and normal arrowroot. Wild arrowroot has more medicinal power than normal arrowroot. My mother in law make arrowroot powder every year with wild arrowroot and make delicious drinks for us when we come for holidays.
