Carrot Tomato Cooler

The mercury is rising here in Hyderabad. The weather is so dry that it is scary to go out in the day time. I just feel like finishing the day’s cooking before 10 am and be out of the kitchen. Alas! That’s not really very possible when you have 2 little girlies with their unending demands to keep munching or drinking something.
Here is a recipe of a perfect summer cooler, which I saw in television about 3 weeks back. When I whipped up this refreshing drink, it was an instant hit with my daughters. Both of them really loved it.



Ingredients Makes: 2 Glasses

1. Carrots – 3
2. Tomatoes – 5
3. Ginger – 1 small piece
4. Pepper Powder – ¼ tsp
5. Honey – 1 tblsp (or to taste)
6. Juice of Half a Lemon
7. Mint leaves for garnishing

Method

Blend carrots, tomatoes and ginger in a juicer or Mixer. Strain the juice. Then add pepper powder, honey and lemon juice. Give it a nice mix. Pour it into glasses. Garnish with mint leaves. You can add ice cubes or refrigerate and serve chilled.

    As for finishing cooking early, I feel the same too!It should be possible if we plan the menu a day ahead and focus on kitchen chores early in the morning, what say you?
