Ingredients

  • Star fruit washed & chopped - 2
  • Lemon grass - 4 to 5 leaves
  • Mint leaves - few
  • Lemon - 1
  • Sugar - 2 tbsp or more
  • salt - to taste

Instructions

  • First of all wash lemongrass well. Heat a pan on stove with 2 glasses of water. Once it starts to boil add lemongrass leaves into in. Next add sugar to this.
  • Let it simmer for 2 to 3 minutes. Switch off the flame. Your lemongrass tea is ready.
  • Cool and strain it. Keep aside
  • Now chop star fruit into pieces. Make puree by blending it into mixer.
  • In a muddler, put lemon juice and mint. Muddle it 2 to 3 times to release the flavour. But don’t over muddle it as mint may turn bitter and it will spoil the taste of mojito.

To serve

  • Coat the rim of the glass with honey, chilli powder and chat masala for that extra kick while sipping this cool mojito.
  • In 2 tall glasses, add enough ice cubes. Divide mint lemon mixture equally. To this add star fruit puree. Top it up with lemongrass tea.
  • Add salt to taste.
  • With the help of stirrer, mix everything well. Taste the test and adjust sweetness and serve chilled.
