The festivities of Raksha Bandhan have everybody excited! This year Raksha Bandhan, also known as Rakhi, is being celebrated on August 11, 2022. This auspicious occasion is celebrated by tying rakhis to our siblings as a sign of their promise to protect us. In exchange, our siblings shower us with love and gifts. While we are busy thinking of what gifts to ask our sibling for on this special occasion, we tend to forget the rest of the preparations! Often, we forget to buy mithai on time, only to realize that all sweets are sold out at the halwai. Raksha Bandhan is incomplete without mithai, so what to do at such short notice? Prepare mithai at home!
