Extracted from the text2 references

Bark of cinnamon (as the commentary reads tvak), aralu, kutaja, mango, kadamba and jambu is ground with thick rice water, wrapped in banana leaves and cooked by the putapaka method; squeezed, it yields a fragrant red juice, which is drunk cool with a paste of liquorice and is said to overcome diarrhoea very quickly. Alternatively ambashthika, a juicy pomegranate and tinduka cooked in buttermilk are drunk. A footnote says ambashthika can also mean patha.
