Bottlegourd Juice

We doesnt need many special ingredients to make some wonderful drinks from fresh veggies or fruits, one among those easy breezy juice is this bottlegroud juice, a fabulous drink to beat the heat..Drink this juice during hot weather and am damn sure you will enjoy thoroughly this veggie juice, its quite a wonderful drink to have anytime also is ideal if you are watching your weight, coz a 100gram bottlegroud contains only just twelve calories...You can make either sweet or salt version of this juice depending upon your wish, i prepared sweet version of this juice and we enjoyed it chilled..Sending to Radhika's Fun N SunKid's Delight - Cool Comforts guest hosted by Pj,event by Srivalli and finally to Healing Foods-Sukham Coolers guest hosted by Pratiha & Jigyasa,event by Siri n to Seasonal Indulgence-Summer Coolers event by Saffronstreaks...
