Ramadan is coming to an end in a day or two. Though I couldn’t fast this year due to some health issues but I’ve witnessed my close ones fasting and praying in this scorching heat. Ramzan in summers are not only challenging but also makes our inner body dehydrate due to lack of water. That is why it’s often seen people drinking more water and fluids during iftar than indulging into food. After a whole day of fasting our body asks for thirst quenching drinks more than anything else.
Yesterday I made this refreshing APPLE & CHERRY REFRESHER that is a simple drink made with tea concoction , apple juice and some cherries. Prepare the concentrate and refrigerate, mix in water whenever needed, add some ice and your refreshing chilled beverage is ready. With the goodness of vitamin C, this chilled fruit ice tea revitalizes the body and gives energy for the whole day.
To make this summer thirst quencher all you have to do is prepare green tea brew, strain and collect in a decanter. Add apple concentrate, honey, mix well and refrigerate. For making iced drink, take 1/4 cup of tea mix, add chilled water, sweetener (honey if needed), cherries, mint leaves. Gently pound the cherries and mint with a spoon and stir. Serve chilled.
Note : you can add sugar instead of honey.
