⏱ 10 min + overnight soak🍽 2 glasses
Method
- 1
Soak the gond katira in a bowl of water overnight — it will bloom into soft, jelly-like crystals.
- 2
Drain any extra water and rinse the bloomed katira gently.
- 3
Stir the rose syrup into the chilled milk until fully blended.
- 4
Add the bloomed katira (and basil seeds if using), stir once.
- 5
Pour over crushed ice and serve immediately.
Purie tip: Never eat gond katira dry — always soak it fully. It absorbs many times its weight in water.
