Muskmelon Juice Recipe | Kharbuja Juice | Kirni Palam | Rock Melon Juice with step-by-step photo and video recipe. Summer season is a popular season for cold and refreshing dessert or beverage recipes. Typically, the recipes are made out of tropical fruits which may or may not include other flavoring agents like ice cream, custard, or sweets. One such easy and simple refreshing drink beverage is the muskmelon juice recipe or also known as sharbat-e-kharbuja dessert drink.
This recipe of muskmelon juice or perhaps kharbuja sharbat is very much inspired by street-style badam juice. I am unsure if it is relevant in North India, but in South India, you have these Shiv Kailash street vendors who often serve creamy badam juice. While the ingredients are slightly different but the texture and color are almost the same. Moreover, kharbuja juice is a versatile drink. You get a range of varieties. I have gone with a premium and fancy option. But you may just extract the melon juice and serve it with ice cubes. I did not want to share it that way as there is nothing to show it that way. Preparing the juice with custard powder, sabudana, and loaded with nuts topping is next level. Do try this new way of Kirni Palam juice and let me know if you try this for your next occasion.
