guava punch recipe | homemade fresh guava drink | summer Mocktail drink | guava mocktail | guava punch is a nice lemony flavoured Indian drink with hints of mint with invigorating flavours for a party. Learn how to make homemade fresh guava punch. A mouth-watering blend of guava puree, ginger and lemon juice, garnished with sprigs of mint that add an irresistible aroma and flavour to the guava mocktail. The heady aroma will surely lift up your mood and re-energize you. To make guava punch, combine the guava, sugar and 6 cups of water in a deep non-stick kadhai, mix well and cook on a medium flame for 10 to 12 minutes or till they turn soft, while stirring occasionally. Remove from the flame and allow it to cool completely. Once cooled, blend in a mixer to a smooth purée. Strain the purée using a strainer and keep aside. Add the lemon juice and the ginger juice and mix well. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour and serve chilled garnished with mint sprigs. Cooking the guava helps to soften it before pureeing, while straining this mixture helps remove the guava seeds that might spoil the rich and creamy mouth feel of this summer mocktail drink. Lemon and ginger team up in many recipes from salads to drinks. Pungent ginger and tangy lemon help to both enhance and balance the natural sweetness of guava very pleasantly. Sugar balances these flavours with its sweetness. Thus every ingredient lends its contribution and they complement each other very well too! Serve guava mocktail in pretty serving glasses and garnishes of your choice other than mint if you wish to. Tips for guava punch. 1. Cut the guava cubes just before making the puree. 2. Straining the guava mixture is important to get rid of the seeds. 3. Add fresh lemon juice and ginger juice. 4. To make ginger juice, grate ginger using a grater and then place the gratings in a muslin cloth. Press the muslin cloth to get fresh ginger juice. If using large amounts of ginger, place the ginger along with some water in a juicer and then grind. Strain and then use as required.

This popular drink made from the potent Mexican liquor Tequila is served in chilled, salt rimmed stemmed glasses. When strawberry or kiwi are not in season use readymade strawberry or kiwi crush…… and remember to reduce the sugar proportionately. You can also make them with lemons or pineapples. Some people like salt around the rim of the glass; some don't. I do. A hint of salt on the tongue contrasts with the sweetness of the fruit and sets off the tequila's unique flavor. This drink is equally delicious without the tequila too.
Unable to decide which of your favourite melons to enjoy today? Why not bring them both together into a refreshing glassful?

Since you need to serve the drink immediately after blending, keep all the ingredients chilled so that the drink will also be cool.

Trade its roots to the Mediterranean. A soothing, wine-red cocktail. Only it's non-alcoholic.
Sangria comes from the Spanish word sangre, meaning blood from the colour. In Spain and the surrounding area, it is drunk at many festivals with great theatrical drama - poured directly into the mouth from a long spouted jug! The art lies in being able to drink the Sangria from varying heights without spilling any! It has now become a very well known drink, cool and packed with fruit. Ideally, Sangria needs to sit for a full day before it is served, to ensure a smooth and mellow taste. If a day is not possible, give it an absolute minimum of two hours to sit. Doubling or tripling the recipe is fine, but you'll have to switch to a large punch bowl in place of the pitcher.
