How to get cold water in an old pot
If the water in the old pot kept in your kitchen is not getting cold, then instead of buying a new pot, try this recipe. First of all soak the pot with water.

Also try these tips to keep the pot cool:
- Wrap with cotton cloth: Due to high outside temperature in summer, the pot also starts getting hot. In such a situation, you can use cotton cloth to protect the water in the pitcher from external temperature. By wetting a cotton cloth and draping it over the pitcher at regular intervals during the day, the pitcher will not get hot and the water will also remain completely chilled.
- Place the pot on the stand: Never keep the pot directly on the ground. By doing this the water does not cool down. Actually, due to the hot ground the pot also gets heated from below. Therefore, you can keep a stand or an earthen pot or a wet cloth under the pot. This keeps the water cool.
