Have you ever heard of Falooda? You might haven’t. Falooda is an Indian delicacy that first originated in Persia. It is both drink and a dessert. I have tried it myself a lot and I am telling you, it is Yum. Whether you want to sip this creamy, nutty drink or eat chunks of jelly and ice cream— Falooda has it all. It is a dessert that is perfect for any season.
You might be wondering, what is it made from? Actually there are a lot of ingredients in it but I think Rabri and Rose Syrup are the main ingredients that make it special. Rabri is the thickened milk that makes the base ingredient for falooda. Rose syrup adds taste to the falooda and makes it yummy.
Another ingredient that is important in it is Vermicelli Noodle. It is a very fine noodle made of ground rice. It is primarily used in Asian regions for cooking. This noodle makes the falooda dessert something different and super tasty. If you missed this ingredient, you missed the whole falooda taste.
Moreover, ice creams, nuts, basil seeds and rose petals are used as extra toppings. Basil seeds are also a special ingredients that makes it a delicious dessert and drink. I liked these seeds when I took a sip of falooda as a drink.
