Recipe for Mumbai Street Style Water Melon Juice
Recipe for Mumbai Street Style Water Melon Juice
When I miss Home,This is what I do.I'm sure all you Mumbai Buggers will relate to this, if you've travelled by the Local Trains!There are stalls that sell this outside almost every railway station. They call it Watermelon Juice but it actually is Roohafzah with Watermelon cubes! When Floyd and I were in college, we used to have it at Borivali station for Rs. 5/- back then! And we could never stop at just one glass(so typically us)! Trust me, it's some next level stuff! You must try it out!This drink is a life saver during Summers and since I'm in the land of the Desert and experiencing some extreme Summers out here, I decided to make the 'Station Wala Watermelon Juice'
