Chilled watermelon blended with fresh curd, mint and lime. The curd turns a thin juice into a light, pink smoothie with a bit of protein and calcium, while the watermelon makes it over 90% water. It is an easy way to take in fluid on a hot afternoon without reaching for a cola.

Ingredients
Method
- 1
Add the watermelon, curd, mint, lime juice and black salt to the blender jar.
- 2
Blend on medium for 20 seconds only; over-blending watermelon makes it frothy and thin.
- 3
Pour into a tall glass and drink immediately; it separates within 10 minutes.
Tips
- Freeze watermelon cubes for an hour first and you get a slushy texture with no ice.
- Use curd that is fresh and set, not sour, or the drink tastes like thin chaas.
