Come summer and all we crave for are refreshing thirst quenchers, don't we?

Summer is here and so is the unbearable heat! 

With kids on vacation, and people trying to find interesting ways to beat the sweltering summer heat, it's time you brought out your recipe books.

Put on your chef's hat on and come up with simple, tasty meals and snacks for summer.

Summertime cooking can be fun with healthy grilled food, refreshing coolers, tossed salads and yummy frozen treats. 

It's that time of the year that you want to give up heavy meals for sandwiches, salads and easy to whip up recipes.

We ask you, dear readers to share your recipes for summer mocktails, soups, light curries, grilled veggies, cold slushes and everything perfect for the weather.

Mail your recipes along with photographs to getahead@rediff.co.in (subject line: Summer Recipes) along with your NAME, AGE and LOCATION.

We'll carry the best responses right here on Rediff.com.
