Difference between Gulkand and Rose Syrup

Rose syrup is a sugar syrup that has been flavoured with rose essence and is mostly coloured a vibrant pink. It is used in flavouring drinks and sweets.

"Gul" means flower and "qand" means sweet in Persian. Gulkand is a sweet preserve or jam/jelly made from pink Damascus rose petals. It is a dusky pink-brown colour and can be used in a variety of ways.

In South Asia, gulkand is used in sweet recipes. As it is cooling, it is also sometimes mixed with milk and consumed for its various health properties (following Ayurveda). We have used gulkand in making Badam and Gulkand Katli

🌹Ingredients for Rose Lassi

Rose syrup - rose syrup is easy to find in both British and Asian supermarkets. You specifically need rose syrup and not rose water. If you only have rose water, then you'll need to add sugar.

Yogurt - use plain full-fat yogurt. We have used greek yogurt here.

Milk - we have used whole milk but you can also use skimmed/semi-skimmed

Cream - our SECRET ingredient. Using cream takes this lassi to a whole new level. If you want to make the. best. lassi. do not cut any corners and use cream! You will never make lassi any other way. Use single or double cream. If in America, use half & half instead of the cream and milk in this recipe.

Tips: You do not need any added sugar in this recipe as the syrup is more than sweet enough. Go easy on the rose syrup as it is intense and can make the lassi overly sweet. It is better to add more as you go.

For a change, use Kefir to make Kefir Lassi. Substitute the milk and yogurt for kefir and add the rose syrup. Kefir drink is available in British supermarkets.

Vegan Rose Lassi

This lassi can easily be made vegan by substituting the milk and yogurt for vegan alternatives.

Oat milk is very creamy so still gives a thick creamy consistency.

Use an unsweetened plain yogurt

Rose syrup is vegan - but check the bottle just in case!

🌹Rose Lassi Variations: 

Rose and Cardamom - add a small pinch of cardamom powder +/- nutmeg powder

Rose and Vanilla - add a small drop of pure vanilla essence/vanilla extract/vanilla pod seeds

Rose and Lavender - add a tsp of lavender syrup along with the rose syrup

Rose and Mango - instead of rose syrup, use a few drops of rose water and add 2 tbsp of tinned mango pulp

Rose and Pistachio - add some crushed pistachio nuts or use a pistachio syrup

How to make Rose Lassi:

1. Greek yogurt

2. Add cream

3. Add milk and whisk together

4. Add rose syrup, mix and enjoy.


Serve.

You do not need to blend in a blender - using a spoon. fork or whisk is perfectly fine.
