Nungu Rose milk, Palm fruit rose milk

Nungu rose milk | Palm fruit rose milk recipe with video and step wise pictures , summer coolant recipe made using nungu and rose milk syrup. Rose milk is one of my most favorite drink from the childhood. My mom used to make rose milk for me almost all the days during summer. Most of the days morning after getting up we used to take rose milk only. I got introduced to Rooh afza after moving to Singapore. Though i like it, i still love the rose syrup more.
Also i have seen roohafza with watermelon drink popularly called as Mohabat ka sarbath. Here in the local shops they sell the Malay special rose milk called Bandung. But i always love the South Indian Rose milk.
I saw this rose milk syrup from Sri Murugan stores, Singapore and wanted to try it out.
I actually planned to make rose milk ice cream. But i have got fresh nungu from the Indian shop, so i am so tempted to make this Nungu rose milk. It was so refreshing and perfect for this hot summer. Myself and my daughter enjoyed it so much. Also check out the Nungu sarbath recipe too.

Kuska Biryani, pattani kurma, Lunch menu combo 7

Kuska Biryani is a popular one in Tamilnadu especially in the village side. Basically Kuska biryani is made using Seerga samba rice and this biryani doesn't have any veggies in this. Usually it is paired with a kurma. I have first tasted this Kuska biryani in my childhood through our neighbor aunty, who introduced so many yummy delicacies to me.
The addition of coconut milk and whole spices makes it so rich and tasty. This week's lunch menu comes with a yummy combo of Kuska biryani and pattani kurma. Also we have Kurunai vadai, which i learnt from the same aunty. And to top all, i made elaneer payasam for dessert. My daughter was asking me to make Elaneer payasam for a long time. Finally made this yesterday for the weekend lunch menu.

Growing up in Madurai, we have tasted this nungu sarbath many times. More than trying it outside, we used to make it at home. My mama used to get nanarai sarbath bottle from shop during summer. We used to make the plain sarbath at home and also the nungu sarbath too. The first taste of the nungu sarbath was in Kanyakumari, when i was in 7th standard. Vividly remember visiting the beach in Kanyakumari on a hot summer day and enjoying the nungu sarbath on the way back.
