Let's make something good
How to make it
5 steps. Take it one step at a time.
Combine 500 ml of water and sugar
In a large pitcher, combine 500 ml (2 cups) of water and sugar. Stir vigorously until the sugar is completely dissolved.
Squeeze the juice from the 2 lemons
Squeeze the juice from the 2 lemons into the pitcher, ensuring no seeds fall in.
Add the black salt and roasted cumin powder
Add the black salt and roasted cumin powder to the lemon water and stir well to combine.
Gently slap the mint leaves between your palms
Gently slap the mint leaves between your palms to release their oils, then add them to the pitcher along with ice cubes.
Pour into tall glasses
Pour into tall glasses and serve immediately while chilled.
A little kitchen wisdom
For the best flavor, use freshly roasted and ground cumin seeds. Black salt (Kala Namak) is essential for that authentic Indian street-side taste. You can adjust the sugar according to your preference or substitute with honey.
