Detailed Directions and Instructions
Preparing the Jamun Juice
Start by washing the jamun fruits thoroughly. Remove any stems and leaves. Blend the jamun fruits in a mixer until you achieve a smooth puree. Strain the puree through a fine sieve to separate the juice from the pulp. Set the juice aside.
Mixing Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the strained jamun juice with sugar. Stir well until the sugar completely dissolves. Add lemon juice to the mixture for balancing the sweetness with a hint of tanginess.
Preparing the Soda
In another bowl, take chilled sparkling water or soda. Gradually pour the jamun mixture into the soda while stirring gently. This helps to maintain the fizz.
Serving the Drink
Pour the jamun soda into glasses filled with ice. Garnish each glass with mint leaves or lemon slices for an extra touch of flavor and presentation.
Final Touch
Serve immediately to enjoy the refreshing drink at its fizziest. Stir before drinking to mix the garnish and flavors.
Notes
Using Fresh Jamun
Fresh ripe jamun yields the best flavor and color, so choose the best quality fruits.
Adjusting Sweetness
You can adjust the amount of sugar based on your preference. Start with a smaller amount and add more as needed.
Chilling Ingredients
Ensure that the soda and glasses are chilled for a refreshing and crisp drink.
Variations
You can experiment by adding a hint of spices like black salt or chat masala for an Indian twist.
Storing Leftover Juice
Any leftover jamun juice can be chilled and stored in the refrigerator for a couple of days. However, mix with soda just before serving to maintain the fizz.
