Dry fruit gola, tu hi tu, tu hi tu, satrangi re… look out for the seven colours of the rainbow on your favourite gola! golas, made from crushed ice laced with sherbets of different flavours, are a relief from the scorching heat. Crushing machines keep churning out the ice, to be merged with various fruit flavours like kala khatta, rose, mango… name it and they have it! don’t forget to have the malai gola made with condensed milk or the very interesting cadbury gola.

Kala Khatta is an ever-popular Indian flavour for juices and slushes. Here is a fascinating Kala Khatta Slush that is sure to tickle your taste buds with its icy consistency and refreshing taste. Crushed ice gives it its characteristic mouth-feel while a dash of jeera powder and chaat masala give it a chatpata flavour. Serve the Kala Khatta Slush immediately after preparation, before the ice melts. Try other recipes like Orange Sorbet Slush and Adrak aur Ganne ka Slush .

Not very nutrient rich, but better than aerated sugar laden drinks. For a change I added kalakhatta syrup as this drink tastes nice this way. Coriander, chillies, and other ingredients give it an Indian feel and perk up the taste. Add soda just before serving. If you want more sweet add sugar subsitute. When you are bored to drinking chaas make this for lunch and enjoy the difference.
