Cool start:)))

   There are plenty of easy summer special cold drink recipe for summer home lovers  in the kitchen to try. Treating themselves or the guests with smoothies, lassies, cold drinks, milk shakes, ice creams with different fruit flavors are wonderful during summer days. As many  people accept that a cold glass of lassie is just the right thing for a warm day.
    Mangoes the delicious fruit and weakness to most during summer offers different recipes from pickles to delicious drinks in our part of world. Preparing mango lassie and creating a setting with it was order of the day for me. Placing the glasses on a ice cube filled plate looked cool. Some yellow flowers from the garden gave a finishing look to the setting as well. The drink is easy to make and yummy to drink.  You too can try this for a gathering or for yourself. Enjoy your summer drink.

  1. Sujatha, I came over from Bernideen's blog to see your lovely post. Your photos are beautiful, and this mango drink sounds delicious. Must try it soon. I noticed mangos on my last trip to the grocery store, but didn't get any because I didn't have a recipe in mind. Now I do!

  2. Oops, I typed a comment for this post and must not have hit publish. I thought it was so clever to use the cute dish to hold the ice that chills the very yummy looking drinks. I thought the recipe looked good too. I don't often think to buy mangoes but I might have to do so soon.

200th post at Crystal Grandeur!

This is my 200th post at Crystal Grandeur!  As a profound blogger it is a moment of joy for me as well.   It has been a wonderful journey all along.  Crystal Grandeur blossomed in November 2011 with Diwali & Christmas decors and it is my small world where my imagination and creations comes to reality.  I admire some of the blogs crossing 400+ posts. I appreciate and thank them for influencing others to do the same.  Speaking of my love for decors and styling I enjoy exploring different aesthetics and incorporate them in my decors and tablescapes. It helps me to keep moving forward  with new and fresh ideas  and doesn't let me be stagnant to one particular style.    For a nostalgia kick i share with you all... my delightful moments at Crystal Grandeur. Receiving appreciation for your creation in the form of comments always touches ones heart. (Sharing some of my past posts sweet comments posted by dear readers from across...

In our garden plenty of Calamondin oranges started to appear and the fresh smell of the citrus in the air so soothing.  Plucked few of them and made marmalade from the ripen oranges for the morning toast. Also a good idea to make marmalade when the oranges are plenty, fill them in cute little bottles,tie with a ribbon/card and gift it when there is a Fall party or for Thanks giving & festive occasions.

While removing the pulp take away the seeds. Squeeze out the juice from the pulp using a thin cloth . Cut the skin to thin stripes.  Put a heavy bottom pan on the stove and keep on low flame.
