Jaggery Lemonade: a three-ingredient lemonade mocktail
↓ Jump to recipeQuick answer
Jaggery Lemonade is 30 ml lime juice, 20 ml Swa Jaggery syrup and 250 ml water, stirred in a tall glass. Add the water after stirring the lime and syrup together. It takes under a minute and needs no equipment.
Why use jaggery syrup for lemonade?
Jaggery is made from concentrated sugarcane juice and gives a deeper, more rounded sweetness than plain sugar. Paired with lime, it gives a familiar drink an Indian profile that guests notice.
Where does it fit on the menu?
It is a quick, low-cost cooler for cafes: no blender, no shaker, just a tall glass and ice. Add soda instead of still water for a fizzy version. See our cafe menus for more ideas or more Swa recipes.
