Description
A refreshing and tangy summer mocktail made with raw mango pulp, spices, and crushed Pulse candies. This chilled drink delivers a nostalgic balance of sweet, sour, and slightly spicy flavors.
Ingredients
1 cup raw mango pulp
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon black salt
1/2 teaspoon roasted cumin powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper powder
6 to 8 Pulse candies (kachcha aam flavor), crushed
2 cups chilled water
Ice cubes as needed
Fresh mint leaves for garnish
Lemon slices for garnish
Instructions
- Peel and chop the raw mango, then blend it until it forms a smooth pulp. Strain if needed to remove excess fibers.
- Crush the Pulse candies using a mortar and pestle until they become a fine powder.
- In a large bowl or pitcher, combine the raw mango pulp, crushed candy powder, sugar, lemon juice, black salt, roasted cumin powder, and black pepper.
- Mix well until the sugar dissolves completely and the ingredients are evenly combined.
- Pour in the chilled water and stir thoroughly to blend the flavors.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or salt if needed.
- Fill serving glasses with ice cubes and pour the mocktail over the ice.
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves and lemon slices, then serve immediately while chilled.
Notes
For a fizzy variation, replace part of the chilled water with sparkling water or soda.
Add a small pinch of chaat masala for extra tangy street-style flavor.
Blend a few fresh mint leaves into the mixture for a stronger minty taste.
You can mix a small amount of ripe mango pulp with the raw mango pulp for a sweeter version.
The drink can be stored in a sealed pitcher in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours; stir well before serving.
Avoid storing the drink with ice already added to prevent dilution.
