Why should all the juices be sweet???? 

When I was thinking of something in these lines, I came up with this delicious combo of spicy but chill drink. It worked out well and tasted just too delicious :) 

It can also be served in the name of Cold tomato soup :P

Since its super hot summer at Chennai already, I thought of posting some chill juice varieties to beat the heat. Hence I shall be posting 1 juice recipe per week under this Summer special series :) Keep watching.

  7. A spicy and chilled soup is what is called the Gazapacho soup mostly in south america..during summer. This one looks like you`ve added a lot of punch - tulasi which has a spiciness in itself, pepper and red chilli powder. Must be tasting yum!
