Nannari Sherbet


We own a soda maker and my husband keeps preparing different flavored sodas every night after our dinner, irrespective of the weather outside. Recently he prepared nannari sherbet with the syrup we had. This is one of the popular sherbets for the summer months in Cuddapah, my husband's hometown in Andhra pradesh. 
Nannari plant roots are used to prepare syrup which can be stored for longer periods. The roots have their own distinct, pleasant aroma. Either nannari syrup can be made from scratch using nannari roots or can be bought from stores, for a quicker and easier option. 
I had posted earlier a detailed version of how to prepare nannari syrup from scratch and about nannari lassi. Check here if you are interested. If you have syrup ready, preparing this sherbet is a child's play.


Ingredients:
1/2 litre soda water
Juice squeezed from a small lemon
2 -3 Tbsp nannari syrup

Method:
Mix everything and serve.

  3. How very interesting to note your daily customary drink. Sometime back we used to make it a habit to have some sweet, these days I have cut it down. Nannari drink is something I have heard so much about, never got a chance to taste it..the colour looks so good.

  6. Sounds very interesting and delicious. My husband wants to buy a soda stream, but I've been putting him off for a while now. Do you think it's a good investment??
