KULUKKI SARBATH

Kulukki is a popular refreshing drink in Kerala. ‘Kulukki’ word means ‘shaken’ in Malayalam and it’s because of the preparation of this drink. Basically this drink is shaken lemonade. This sarbath is prepared not in mixer or blender but all the ingredients are combined and vigorously shakwn and then served. Sweet and spicy flavour is speciality of this drink. Normally plain water is used but instead I have used coconut water. You can make different flavours of kulukki sarbath like pineapple, orange, rose kulukki.
