Surahi or goglet is a long necked earthen vessel used to store water. For centuries, this pot has been used in Indian households for storing and cooling water. The porous nature of the clay allowed water stored in it to cool through a natural process of evaporation. In addition to this, water stored in a Surahi is said to have health benefits, including balancing the pH level of the water, making it an ancient yet effective means of hydration.
