Winter in Pakistan brings chilly weather, and with it comes the tradition of enjoying nutritious dry fruits. From the bustling bazaars of Karachi to the cold valleys of Gilgit, dry fruits have been a staple of Pakistani winter nutrition for centuries.

  • Natural warmth-generating properties that help maintain body temperature
  • High calorie content for sustained energy in cold weather
  • Essential vitamins and minerals to boost immunity
  • Healthy fats that protect against dry skin and hair damage
