Rose Thandai
As it is beginning of summer with holi coming in next week and fresh roses blooming in the garden, I thought why not celebrate Women's Day with fresh Rose Thandai. Why just gift Women a Rose, why not take the benefit of fresh roses grown in the garden without any pesticide. So I decided to treat myself and my little daughter with fresh and flavourful Rose Thandai on the occasion of Women's Day.
Rose Thandai is a special healthy drink made for festival of Holi. Thandai refers to chilled, flavoured milk made during summers. It is made in different flavours, Rose being one of them.
Thandai can be made with store bought powder or made at home with base paste. Ingredients for instant powder and paste are same, except for soaking in 2nd method. Nuts, seeds and spices are soaked and grinded to a fine paste along with rose petals. It is then sieved and mixed with milk and sugar. Fresh rose petals can be replaced with dried rose petals or gulkand(adjust sugar accordingly).
Rose Thandai is best served chilled for holi gathering or as a summer drink.
