Notes

Ideally a silver or bronze bowl should be used to prepare panchamrit. In case that is not available, use a glass bowl.
To mix everything well, make sure the ingredients are at room temperature.
While it is a holy preparation, Panchamrit is great with a lot of health benefits. Thus, it can be consumed a teaspoon a day for these benefits too.
Make Panchamrit just before the pooja. It stays well only for 4-5 hours once mixed.
Please consume the mix in moderation. Having a lot of panchamrit will definitely cause digestive issues.
This mix is not recommended for people with diabetes or lactose intolerance. This is because it has quite a bit of sugar and dairy based elements.
