Scorching sun and humid climate is draining out all water and energy from our body as we came back from office, school, and working place to relaxing area that is our sweet home. All of us want to satisfy our appetite and that too in healthy way. We don’t wish to have heavy desserts but in summers, we want to eat right and light.
I personally don’t like sweets but my daughter is crazy about desserts like laddu, ghewar, dhodha, and her favorite one is kajju katli .She demands a small separate pack of it from his grandfather.
So, I keep on trying unique treats for her and I am sharing 1 among them.
It is one of coolest treat as I tried it with all-time favorite fruit watermelon cool and juicy with full of nutrients.

Cool steps to gear up coolant delight:
- Collect all the ingredients at one place by sitting in drawing room.
2.Pour the watermelon, lime juice and sugar in a blender.
3.Blend until completely pureed to get required consistency.
4.Place a sieve over a large bowl to pour the puree via the sieve. We can do it in small batches at ease so it does not spill out. Discard the pulp.
5.Empty the puree into a casserole dish (I use my daughter square rectangular lunch box) and place it in a freezer for 4 hours or until solidify.
