PINK & SWEET | 5 MINS
It’s pink, it’s sweet, it’s falooda! Sri Lankan Falooda is the ultimate summer drink—like a dessert and a drink all in one! Picture a tall, colorful glass brimming with layers of sweet goodness: rose syrup, plump chia seeds, fruity jelly cubes, and a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream. Made with a blend of evaporated and condensed milk, every sip is a creamy, refreshing explosion of flavors and textures. This drink isn’t just tasty; it’s an experience. Perfect for cooling down on a hot day or impressing your friends at a get-together. Trust me, once you try Falooda, you’ll be hooked!
And let’s not forget its gorgeous pink hue, which instantly brightens my mood. Make yourself a cool glass and enjoy it poolside. Or better yet, whip up a batch and bring it to the next pool party! It’s guaranteed to be a hit.
CAN YOU MAKE IT VEGAN?
You can swap out the condensed and evaporated milk for your choice of nut milk. I’d recommend adding some agave syrup or sugar to make sure you still get enough sweetness in this drink.
