Almond Sharbat - Let's Chill!!

Summer is almost here and back home it's already frying up people. So, let's beat the heat with some sharbat. This is my favourite sharbat esp. when served chilled. I used to love going to Nathu's in Delhi to drink this one during the hot summer months. It not only chills you but also fills you up because it is so rich with almonds.

Traditionally, this drink is made in the month of Ramadan to break the fast. I know it too hot and so let's go straight to one of the easiest recipes for summer.
