Landed in my country after a long time and after very long jetlag days we started going out to meet friends and relatives. We went to my sisters place last week. When we reached there I was really exhausted. The heat and noise of traffic had made me really tired.
The moment I was in her house , I was looking in the fridge for something refreshing to drink when my eyes caught a glimpse of a tupperware bottle filled with something. I asked my akka what was it and she said "Dont ask me but do try it". She served me a chilled glass which i gulped in secs. So refreshing, so light and so yummy that i could not resist asking for another glass to which she smiled ans said "Now that means its yummy???" I was so impressed that my tastebuds hit my brain buttons which in turn made my mouth utter "Recipe plsssssssssssssssss....."
So here you go for a very very simple way to refresh yourself.
(Pics coming soon)
Serves... concentrate can be stored a while
Serve option... Serve chilled with ice cubes and preferably mint
This is what u'll need....
Here is the stir....
- Cut amla into small pieces and remove the seed. Transfer this to a mixie jar
- Grind all aamla to make a fine paste. Dont use water to grind it
- Sieve it thru a strainer to remove any lumps or excess fibre. Make sure you press the mixture to help squeezing using the back of a spoon. Dont use your hands for any reason
- Transfer the entire juice into a bottle and store it in the fridge
- When serving, add little chaat masala to a glass, pour a couple of tablespoons of this concentrate and then fill it with water. Top it with ice cubes and fresh mint leaves
- Enjoy a refreshing drink
Notes:
- Dont use your hands to squeeze out the liquid. It will help the concentrate stay for a longer time
- Adjust concentrate amount when serving to mark it up to your taste
