While rooh afza is a classic, Indians love to drink nimbu paani during the summer season to beat the heat and stay hydrated at all times.
However, there is a lot more that you can do if you simply innovate, and celebrated Indian chef Kunal Kapur says just that, especially with the rising temperatures.
Giving a twist to the classic lemonade, the chef says you can simply make Grapes Lemonade, which is definitely not your usual lemonade.
Taking to Instagram, chef Kunal says, “It’s way too hot to settle for basic—so beat the heat with this refreshingly unexpected twist that blends sweet, tangy, and slightly spiced notes into one cooling sip. Think juicy grapes meeting zesty lemon with a hint of masala magic—perfect for summer cravings when you want something different yet super easy. Trust me, this one’s a surprise hit.”
