A glass of chilled limbu sarbat is what one needs on a hot summer afternoon.But I like it any time of the year.the only difference is I have added sabja seeds to the normal nimbu sharbat to make it more interesting

sabja seeds are also known as falooda seeds .For more info on sabja seeds pls click here.
Presenting this recipe which is a all time favourite.

lemon has great benefits as well as the juice of the lemon as well. Either fresh squeezed lemons or store bought lemon juice have the same type of benefits. Lemon juice is good for a source of Vitamin C. One health benefit is that lemons and lemon juice can protect your body against germs and bacteria. 
  

Lemon juice is very high in citric acid, which helps the body fight off colds. Lemons and the juice also acts as an antioxidants. Lemon juice is also a liver stimulant and can control irritable bowel syndrome. It can control conditions like constipation and diarrhea. It can also help in helping heart burn, some bloating and even helping in subsiding gas pains.


Lemon juice diluted with water can be very beneficial for pregnant women; it actually helps build the bones in the unborn child.
