Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup Watermelon (diced)
- 2 cups Cold Milk
- 3 tbsp Rooh Afza Syrup
- 2 tbsp Sugar (optional)
- 1/2 tsp Cardamom Powder
Additional Ingredients
- 20 Ice Cubes
- Edible Rose Petals (optional, for garnish)
- Mint Leaves (optional, for garnish)
- Watermelon Slices (for garnish)
Instructions
- Prepare Watermelon: Chop the watermelon into small cubes and set aside to use later in the drink.
- Mix Base Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine cold milk, Rooh Afza syrup, sugar (if using), and cardamom powder. Stir thoroughly to ensure the sugar dissolves and the flavors meld.
- Add Ice Cubes: Incorporate the ice cubes into the rose milk mixture, stirring gently to chill the drink without diluting the flavors excessively.
- Add Watermelon: Add the finely diced watermelon pieces to the chilled rose milk mixture and mix again to evenly distribute the fruit.
- Serve and Garnish: Pour the prepared sharbat into tall serving glasses. Garnish the top with edible rose petals—either fresh or dried—to add an elegant floral note.
- Final Touches: Add extra watermelon chunks and mint leaves on top for freshness and visual appeal. Serve immediately while cold.
Notes
- Adjust sugar levels depending on the sweetness of the watermelon and personal preference.
- Use fresh, ripe watermelon for the best flavor and natural sweetness.
- Edible rose petals and mint leaves are optional but add beautiful aroma and garnish.
- Ensure milk is chilled beforehand to keep the drink cool without relying solely on ice, which can dilute flavors.
- This drink is best served fresh and consumed the same day for optimal taste and freshness.
