Watermelon Splash
Ingredients
1/2 Watermelon
2 Big Lemons
4 Spoon Sugar
6-7 Pudina Leaves
1/4 Spoon Chaat Masala
1/4 Spoon Jeera Powder
Pinch of Black Pepper Powder
Salt to taste

Method
  • Dice the watermelon and add it to the mixer bowl.
  • Add in lemon juice, sugar, pudina leaves, salt, chaat masala, jeera powder.
  • Using the crushing blade let the mixture blend together in a mixie
  • Pour it in glasses and sprinkle black pepper powder on top. Chill
  • Garnish with small pudina leaves and small scoops of watermelon.
Notes
Since I was so waiting to drink this, to chill it faster, i kept it in fridger for 10 minutes :) Alternatively you can also use already chilled watermelon so that you dont need to wait even 10 minutes :)

One of the most refreshing and healthy drink that my mom makes. I had been making this for a while but today got chance to click some snaps and hence posting the recipe.

Kokam Sarbat
Ingredients
10-12 Kokam
3 Spoon Sugar
1/2 Spoon Jeera Powder
1/4 Spoon Corriander Powder
Salt to taste

Method
  • Soak kokam in 1/2 cup of water for an hour
  • Add it to the mixie. Add 3.5 cups of water, sugar, jeera powder, corriander powder and salt to taste.
  • Pulse the mixture till kokams are very fine.
  • Strain through and serve.

Notes
You can serve it on ice, but then use 1/2 cup less water so that the taste of the sarbat itsn't diluted.

Melon Lassi


Couple of weeks back I tried this unique experiment. I had one old melon sitting in the fridge so was curd, so thats what lead to this recipe.

Melon Lassi
Ingredients
1 Melon
6 Cup Curd
5 Spoon Sugar
A pinch of Vanilla Essence
Salt to taste

Method
  • Chop the complete melon into small piece
  • Keep aside few pieces for garnishing and grind rest of them in the mixie to make the juice.
  • Strain the juice and add it to curd.
  • Add sugar, salt, vanilla essence and again mix in the mixie
  • Garnish with the melon pieces and serve chilled.

Notes
I used sweet thick curd, and didnt need to add any water because the melon juice was enough to lighten the curd to Lassi
