Jigarthanda

Description

Jigarthanda is very famous in madurai.it is very nice drink to have it in summer
Ingredients
2½ cup Milk
3 T Badam pisin
2 T Rose syrub
Or sarsaparila syrub
75 g Ice cream

Instructions

Soak Badham pisin for abt 8hrs, after soaking, badam pisin will be in jelly form.

Boil milk till it becomes half of the quantity & till it turns into pale yellow color.

Leave it to cool & refrigerate the milk.  

Now fill half of the glass with chilled milk, add badam pisin, rose syrup and finally add ice cream. Taste a cool & fine Jigarthanda.

Notes

Milk consistency should be thick and then only Jigarthanda will be tasty.The measurement is given  for one cup.Badam pisin is in such a way it enlarges itself when it is soaked in water, so small piece is enough to turn into a huge amount.Original jigarthanda will be prepared by china grass & either u can use sarasapilla syrup or rose syrup. Still in some of the shops in madurai use badam pisin for jigarthanda.China grass called, kadal pasi or edible algae.Sarasapaila syrup is called nannari syrup.
