Instructions

First of all, wash it in a colander turning them very lightly with delicate hands. Yes, you have to do it with really soft touch, otherwise the pulp skin would get peeled off and you would be left with seeds only.
Once washed, soak Falsa in just enough water with sugar for an hour or so.During this time sugar will also dissolve on its own.
Now using hands, rub it thoroughly so that all the pulp comes out. Strain the solution using a colander.
.Now, put the leftover seeds in the sieve, into a vessel. Add some more water. Rub with hands and again pass through the sieve.
The first juice is excellent for making €œFalsa Kulfi", as it contains the maximum pulp, by pouring them in moulds and freezing them. In case you do not have it, you can use ice tray.
Repeat this process 1 or 2 times more till you are left with just seeds.
Collect all the juices extracted in 3-4 times and chill in refrigerator. Remains good for 3 to 4 days only.
Before serving, add rock salt and serve.

Recipe Notes

Add rock salt only at the time of serving. If added earlier, it deteriotates the taste.
Remains good in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
Incase, you wish to preserve it for long, then freeze the juice and later on, thaw and use.

Additional Tips

For an elegant presentation, garnish each glass with a few whole falsa berries and a fresh mint sprig to enhance both visual appeal and aroma.
If you prefer a tangier flavor profile, add a splash of fresh lime or lemon juice to the sherbet just before serving.
To create a frosty, slushy version perfect for hot days, blend the strained sherbet with ice cubes until smooth, then serve immediately.
Leftover sherbet can be poured into popsicle molds and frozen to make refreshing falsa ice pops—great for children or as a fun summer dessert.
