  • transfer the scooped fruit in the vessel and cover it. keep this aside for 5-6 hours.
  • Sieve the water and discard the seeds.
  • transfer the juice into a bottle and store in the fridge.
  • At the time of serving, if you like sweet juice, transfer the juice in a serving glass add powder sugar as per taste, mix and serve.
  • if you prefer slightly sweet and salty, add black salt, sugar and jeera powder as per taste, mix well and serve.
Tips:

  • if you like the juice to be of a thin consistency, at the time of serving add more quantity of water and mix well.
  • you can also add 1/2 tsp of lemon for the sweet and salty version.
  • you can add normal salt along with the black salt.
  • I prefer to soak the pulp of the bel overnight.
  • powdered sugar or castor sugar is preferred over granular sugar to add to any shake or juice as its easy to dissolve.
  • serve this chilled to beat the scorching heat!!
