Chill out with Mumbai's finest icy summer beverages

Updated On: 29 May, 2024 09:37 AM IST | Devanshi Doshi

As mercury levels continue to soar, we revisit an 80-year-old juice cart in Grant Road, known for its popular watermelon milkshake. Plus, our tried-and-tested list of coolers to sip on from across the city and the suburbs

Grant Road West boasts of skyscrapers, wide roads and box junctions. Cross over the railway bridge, and you will find the eastern side to be a contrast. It’s dotted with chaotic street markets, centuries-old residences, an iconic Irani café, cinema poster-plastered façades, and crammed roads. Tucked here is a small 80-year-old juice stall that attracts hundreds of commuters looking for a respite from the scorching heat. What makes this particular juice hangout unique is its mohabbat ka sharbat (watermelon sharbat) — one of the only two types of beverages on sale.
