I encountered this drink in an obscure Doon Club in northern India in my teenage years - wasn’t allowed to drink alcohol. The taste, and especially the name (sounds like Zeher - poison), stayed in my memory. I finally recreated that excellent drink based on what I remember it tasted like.
INGREDIENTS
1. Frozen Limeade concentrate (NOT lemonade)
2. 7up or Sprite or GingerAle chilled
3. Kala Namak (Black Salt) or Chaat Masala
4. Ice
5. Dash of Vodka - optional
STEPS
1. Partially defrost the frozen limeade and add 2 tablespoons of the concentrate to a glass.
2. Add 1/4 teaspoon of Kala Namak (Black Salt) or Chaat Masala
3. Add a dash of vodka - if you want
4. Stir
5. Add chilled 7up or Sprite or GingerAle
6. Add Ice
Enjoy!!!
ShowMeTheCurry notes: We tried it and it was awesome. Thanks for the submission.

Hi anuja & hetal,
This sounds very interesting.But I could not find limeade concetrate in the place I live.Is there any substitute for this?Is it possible to make at home ?Please elaborate & explain.

Limeade is just lime juice with powdered sugar in it. It is very easy to make at home…we just took the easy (read lazy) way out;-)

hey thx for the immediate reply.If I could give u little more trouble has it to be thick?

SDZG:
No, it does not need to be thick. Make sure that the powdered sugar is mixed in well and the syrup is of ’sticky’ consistency. In 2 tbsps or lime juice, I would add 2 tbsps of powdered (castor) sugar. Hope this helps.

how is it possible to make mixture of lemon juice and sugar of thick consistency,is it by heating?
Waiting for ur reply.

The thickness of the syrup is not important. It is more important to make sure that the ratio of sweet and sour is according to your taste. There is no need to heat the ingredients.
