It’s amazingly one of the most easiest & delectable Summer Drinks & super refreshing too, to beat the scorching summer & majorly the humid climate in the Bengal.
It’s mostly amazingly flavourful & tasteful due to the very usage of the fresh KAFFIR LIMES (Gondhoraj Lebu) in it.
However, kaffir limes are absolutely seasonal & are quite difficult to avail outside Bengal, Bihar & Orissa or rather the entire Eastern part of our country where it’s hugely prevalent & people mostly know the proper usage of the same, more or less.
Needless to mention that, my own ALLTIME summer choices are:
Doi’er Ghol (with or without kaffir limes, hardly matters- as long as regular lemons are handy or are readily available) & Doi Bhaath
or Kerala Styled Thayir Sadam (Curd Rice)
A must try for sure forAll, at least once !!!

Steps

10-12 mins

1

In a blender jar: Add in the aforesaid all the ingredients one by one- except the water & chopped mint leaves & crushed ice & water
2

Initially, pulse it for a few times- Now, add in the rest other left over ingredients to it & again, pulse it for a few more times
3

Now, once mix everything well together with a spoon or ladle, scouring from the bottom so that the outcome is a smooth thin-runny watery mixture- (that’s the main difference between a North Indian Lassi & Bengali Doi’er Ghol) & are hugely mistaken by almost all considering both are almost same, which isn’t the case at all !!!
4

At this point, blend it well finally a couple of times before pouring it out to the serving tumblers/drinking bowls/glasses
5

Garnish it, as you feel like: I did it with a fresh sprig of mint leaves, a pinch of black salt & peppers.
6

Refrigerate it for about an hour or so before relishing it absolutely chilled to soothe your heart & soul- refreshing & energising- boosting & helping you to beat the sticky & unbearable summer days of the place/region/province, you may be placed at currently.

A hardcore Bong- that has a tremendous wanderlust in her blood as well as that much passion for cooking new ideas and recipes & also, camouflaging certain recipes across the globe-Of course, all that maintains its heritage and cultures in its looks and taste both yet caters to the day’s call/requirement to be health conscious but a great foodie that’s innate in her genes and tries to satiate the crowd- Be ANY, with all that 😊💁🏻‍♀️👍🏻
