Ingredients
  

  • Watermelon Juice (तरबूज़ का रस) – 6 cups
  • Sugar (चीनी) – ¾ cup
  • Kashmiri chilli powder (कश्मीरी मिर्च पाउडर) – 1 tbsp 
  • Cumin (जीरा) – 1 tbsp
  • Peppercorn (काली मिर्च) – 12-15 nos
  • Mint leaves (पुदीना) – handful

Instructions
 

  • Blend the watermelon pieces to make 6 cups of juice. Strain to remove pulp and seeds. In a large pot, pour the 6 cups of watermelon juice and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer until it reduces to 3 cups of concentrated juice. This should take about 15 minutes. Stir occasionally.
  • Combine the reduced watermelon juice, sugar, Kashmiri chilli powder, ground cumin and peppercorn, salt, black salt, and lemon juice. Mix well until the sugar dissolves completely. Add a mint leaf to the mixture and let it sit for at least 10 minutes to infuse the flavors. And take them out.
  • To serve, fill a glass with a few ice cubes, add 2-3 tablespoons of the watermelon panna concentrate, and top up with chilled water. Adjust the amount of concentrate to taste. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and lemon wedges.

Notes
