Roohafza refreshing mocktail, a drink made with mint and lemon in virgin mojito style. I have used plain soda for this drink.
As I have said earlier, I didn't like the plain roohafza with water. I like it with milk as in mohabbat ka sharbat. So I thought of adding mint and plain soda like in virgin mojito. It was really refreshing for this summer. It's very simple to prepare if you have chilled soda and few fresh mint in stock.

I have a mint plant growing in my balcony to get few fresh leaves for my cooking. I always add mint to biryani and like few in my veg kurma, which I make weekly once for Aj's lunch box. Since I use only very few numbers, buying mint leaves always ends up in wastage. Not a big fan of mint chutney and thogayal, atleast not that often. So I decided to grow few plants so that I can get few when needed. And it is quite handy for me.
