The Desi Summer Cooler, Shikanji

                     The Desi Summer Cooler, Shikanji 

Welcome to Ek Chai Kahani, where every meal is a flavorful adventure and every cup of chai tells a tale. At our café, we work hard to give meaningful experiences rather than just food and drinks. Every bite and sip is produced with love and attention, whether you’re savoring the warmth of our handcrafted snacks or the rich aroma of our freshly brewed chai. Our menu offers a variety of hearty, soul-satisfying drinks and dishes that make you feel at home, reflecting our love of bringing people together. Ek Chai Kahani is about more than just eating; it’s about savoring each moment. And when summer heat rolls in, we bring you a refreshing, nostalgic classic that feels like home in a glass: Shikanji — The Desi Summer Cooler. 
 
A Delightful Journey Down Memory Lane 
 
Shikanji is more than just a beverage; it’s a roadside custom, a memory from childhood, and an ageless Indian beverage. This simple street-side cooler has been given our unique touch at Ek Chai Kahani, which strikes a balance between classic tastes and the handcrafted quality you have come to expect from us. Just like you remember, but better, our Shikanji is tangy, zesty, and properly spiced. 
 
Made with Freshness & Flavor 
 
Our Shikanji is made by hand using roasted cumin powder, black salt, fresh lemon juice, a little sugar, and a dash of special spices. Depending on your mood, cooled water or soda is added on top, and mint leaves are added as a garnish to keep things refreshing. It is the best way to quench your thirst while the sun is performing its summer dance. It is also hydrating and revitalizing. After just one sip, you’re taken to a cool afternoon beneath a neem tree, sipping a glass and listening to stories. 
 
The Perfect Pairing 
 
For a full desi chai café experience, pair your Shikanji with one of our freshly produced savory appetizers, such as namkeen biscuits, kachoris, or masala buns. It’s the sort of combination that slows down time and starts conversations. 
 
Stay Cool, Desi-Style 
 
Shikanji at Ek Chai Kahani should therefore be your go-to beverage this summer when you want to relax and cool off. It’s an ode to all we cherish: heartfelt flavors, straightforward joys, and tales worth telling. Embrace summer the Desi way by taking a break from the heat. 
 
Every drink at Ek Chai Kahani tells a narrative, and Shikanji is our favorite part of the summertime story.
