   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;-)

   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.

   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.

    Hi Tina,

    Black salt is an unrefined mineral salt that is pinkish gray and has a strong sulfuric flavor. As strange as that may sound, it gives certain Indian dishes (chaat, for example) the unique flavor. It is also considered to be a cooling spice in ayurvedic medicine and is used as a laxative and digestive aid.

    It is a key ingredient in this recipe so plain salt will not be a good substitute. You can find it at any Indian grocery store (aka kala namak or sanchal).
