Mint Krushers Recipe





Why don't your kids be a chef for a day...? Here is an easy, quick and wonderful recipe for kids. Actually this is our vacation project in our school. Any recipe can be done by students. I chose this would be easy for my kid to do, as it is a fireless cooking recipe and no complicated methods and Ingredients needed. This is a Kfc style Mint Krushers and I think it is similar too. My hubby and me love this Mint Krushers and for sooo long time I wanted to post it in my Blog and now came the right time for this recipe. Vyshu enjoyed doing this summer drink and it was a pleasant experience for her. Moreover we prepared this krushers with farm fresh Mint leaves from our Garden. So it was a special Summer drink too. 

Ingredients:
  1. Lemon - 3 medium size
  2. Mint - 10 to 15 leaves (approximately)
  3. Powdered Sugar - 2 to 3 tbsp (or) sugar syrup
  4. Salt - 1 pinch
  5. Chilled Soda water - 1/2 bottle (I used Lehar Soda)
The above mentioned Ingredients makes 2 glasses of Mint Krushers




Directions to make Mint Krushers:

Cut 1 Lemon and extract juice from it. Cut the remaining lemon as wedges



 Add the mint leaves and sugar in the Mortar. I used normal sugar.



Crush it nicely for about 5 seconds. That is enough. Add a pinch of salt



Add Lemon wedges. Crush it gently for about 2 to 3 seconds. That is enough. If you crush it for long time, the juice from it will be bitter.



In a bowl or Mug add the Ice Cubes followed by lemon extract



Also add the crushed Ingredients. If you need sugar you can add it at this stage.
Mix it well with a spoon



In a glass you can just add Mint leaves for Garnishing. Pour the crushed Ingredients as it is. If you want a clear juice, filter it using a juice filter. 

Vyshu do not like to drink as it with the crushes leaves of mint and with lemon wedges. So she is Filtering.



Add Chilled Soda water to the Glass of Mint mixture. You can add sugar at this stage too.



Dissolve Sugar


Now our Delicious Summer drink is ready done by Vyshu. Serve Immediately as chilled Juice.






Notes:
  • If you do not have Mortar and Pestle Just add the Ingredients in a glass and with a help of any Iron rod or chapati rod crush the Ingredients.
  • Do not grind the Mint leaves. As the flavour may differ.
  • Granulated sugar may take time to dissolve, so you can use powdered sugar or sugar syrup.
  • As soon as the Ingredients are crushed add ice cubes and soda, else the colour of mint leaves may change and taste differs.
  • The carbonated water(soda water) must be consumed, once it is opened. As soon as the Mint Krushers are prepared, serve it without any delay.
  • Please avoid preparing the Mint Krushers in prior, keeping it in fridge and serving later. It is not Krushers at all. 
  • Be careful in every step of preparing the krushers. If anything goes wrong the Taste completely differs.
  • If your lemon size is small or big change it according according to your taste. Sugar can be adjusted.
