This sugarcane juice recipe is in headlines all over the Instagram reels. A refreshing, non-alcoholic Indian-style summer cooler that actually tastes like sugarcane juice without using any natural sugar cane.

This sugarcane juice slash summer drink started appearing on Instagram reels in the summer of 2021. Since then, like Dalgona Coffee or Chilli Oil Noodles, this sugarcane juice recipe has become a trendsetter.

The BIGGEST SECRET is that you do not need natural sugar cane or any fancy syrup to make this juice. Yes, you read it right; you can make this sugarcane juice with only 5 ingredients in a blender in under 15 minutes.

But then why is it called sugarcane juice? Because it tastes and looks exactly like the real sugarcane juice, all thanks to the addition of jaggery, which is made from sugarcane.

This drink recipe is very similar to the traditional Indian drink gur ka sherbet or jaggery sherbet.

Ingredients Required

Mint Leaves: Fresh mint leaves give the juice a beautiful green color and a refreshing flavor. It is also an excellent summer cooler and anti-oxidant.

Jaggery: It is the key ingredient in this sugarcane juice recipe. The jaggery gives exactly sugarcane-like taste and color to the drink. I recommend using pure, organic jaggery chunks/cubes rather than the powder.

Cumin Powder: It gives an earthy taste and balances the sweetness of jaggery.

Salt: I use rock salt or the Himalayan pink salt to enhance the flavor of this summer cooler. You can use Chaat Masala, rock salt (sendha namak) or kala namak as well.

Lemon: A squeeze of lemon or lime juice transforms this summer cooler from ordinary to extraordinary.

How To Make

Step 1) Combine jaggery, mint leaves, cumin powder, salt, lemon juice, ice cubes, and water in a blender.

Step 2) Blend it all together to make juice.

FAQs Related To Sugarcane Juice

Can I drink jaggery water during the summer season?

Jaggery helps in maintaining normal body temperature which in turn helps in keeping your stomach cool. Experts recommend drinking Gur Sherbet (jaggery dissolved in ice-cold water) during the summer season to beat the heat.

Can I store this sugarcane juice?

I would not recommend storing it. After a few hours, the taste of mint leaves and lemon juice starts turning bitter. Also, the cooling properties of the juice start deteriorating if stored in the refrigerator.

Can I use brown sugar instead of jaggery?

The pure jaggery gives the authentic taste very close to the natural sugarcane in this juice. Brown sugar or any other type of sugar will not give you the best results.
