Instructions

Bring 1 1/2 cups of water to a rolling boil. Add about 2 tablespoon of raw tamarind to it and cover it up.
Make pulp of it discarding the seeds. Strain it well. Add sugar and blackpepper to it and mix well. Refrigerate it well for a chilled drink.
Take two tall glasses. Fill it up with the pulp in both the glasses in equal quantity.
Now fill it up with the carbonated drink of your choice. Top each glass with the fresh mint leaves and serve right away.

Recipe Notes

Additional Tips

For an extra layer of crunch and flavor, rim your serving glasses with a mixture of crushed roasted peanuts and a pinch of chili powder before pouring in the slushie.
If you want a vegan or less sweet version, substitute Sprite with chilled sparkling water and adjust the sugar to taste, then add a splash of freshly squeezed lime for brightness.
To intensify the tamarind flavor, soak the tamarind pulp overnight in the fridge with a few fresh mint leaves and a sliver of ginger, then strain before using.
Freeze the tamarind mixture in ice cube trays beforehand and blend with Sprite right before serving for a perfectly frosty slushie texture that won’t dilute as it melts.
