  7. Let the syrup cool down.

Storage

  1. Now take a dry glass bottle and mix the syrup, lemon  juice and  add the vinegar in it.
  2. Shake the bottle a bit. ( Close the cap first :-) )
  3. Store this bottle in the fridge. ( you can keep this for a week or so in the fridge)

Serving

  • When serving mix three fourths glass of water with one fourth glass of syrup and add ice cubes.
  • You can garnish it with fresh mint leaves.

  • Another variation would be to add a pinch of black salt.

 

If you want you can use soda water or Tonic Water   instead of  water. It will be a really refreshing drink and fizzy as well.
