A famous Delhi street style drink made with Rooh Afza, milk, and watermelon. It’s the perfect drink for summertime and is ready in just 5 minutes!
Mohabbat ka Sharbat is a famous drink, originally sold by Nawab Qureshi, near Jama Masjid in Delhi, India. The drink has become so popular that it’s also sold in Pakistan.
Refreshing: Rooh Afza has cooling, refreshing properties and combined with watermelon, it’s the ultimate drink.
WHAT IS ROOH AFZA?
* Rooh Afza is a South Asian fruit and floral flavoured rose syrup made with rose water and kewra. It’s a mega-popular beverage enjoyed in all households across Pakistan and India. I use to buy this syrup in Canada all the time . It’s usually diluted with water. You can also squeeze lemon juice into it for a hint of tartness. It is a thirst quencher on hot summer days.
* It’s now available in Mauritus in Valentina mall. Called Haniya Trading co. It’s located at the back of the food court.
* After a whole day without food or water, it serves as a perfect drink to quench one’s thirst and get an instant hydration boost.
