Sweet Lime Soda

This refreshing drink is an absolutely must for summers. In Kolkata, you can get it near any malls and supermarket. It works like magic to beat the heat and leaves you refreshed. I have tried to re-create that taste at home and my hubby loved it. Both of us are a fan of this drink. Its an addiction I must say, so restrain yourself from drinking lots as it it said to give gas problems if consumed too much.

Sweet Lime Soda:
You will need:

500 ml soda water (cold).
4 tbsp sugar (more if you wish).
¼ tsp black salt.
¼ tsp black pepper powder.
¼ tsp roasted cumin powder.
Juice of 1 large lemon (about 4 tbsp).
4 ice cubes.

Process:
Mix all the ingredients and mix well so that the sugar dissolves. Serve chilled with ice cubes.
Sending this to Srivalli's Thanda Mela
