Running since 1977, this shop is credited with popularising jigarthanda as Madurai's signature drink. The recipe combines chilled milk, sarsaparilla syrup, tree gum, and a scoop of hand churned ice cream into a rich, cooling dessert drink. It has grown from a single street vendor setup into a name recognised well beyond the city, though the appeal remains the same, a perfect antidote to Madurai's heat and spice heavy food, best enjoyed on a hot afternoon or after a late dinner.
