Milkshakes

STRAWBERRY SHAKE FALOODA

I don’t like falooda very much,I am an ice cream and smoothie person.But when I was asked to contribute for Savorit Limited for their website I was happy to do this and I also had fresh strawberries in hand from Delhi. Falooda is cold beverage originating from South Asia popular in the Indian subcontinent.Traditionally it is made with mixing rose syrup,vermicelli, sabza seeds with milk and ice cream for more taste.The original recipe calls for making falooda with arrowroot whereas in the Indian version vermicelli is used.The different taste and flavours of falooda is the result of the Muslim invasion in India and has changed over time.

The history books say many facts about falooda. Faloodeh was popular among the Persians and many Muslim merchants and dynasties that settled here popularised it and enjoyed.Nowadays owing popular restaurants have innovative recipes of falooda and have replaced rose syrup with strawberry,mango and such flavours.In such an attempt I have made here strawberry shake falooda and have made a shake with strawberry and milk and added to the falooda.Also the jelly and fruits give added taste.So in a way it looks like an ice cream float topped with nuts and full of pure relish.Also they have variants like coconut cream and rabri falooda.The imagination is endless and you can try with many flavours and add a variety of fruits.
