A unique sharbat or sherbet made exclusively in the month of Muharram in Hyderabad City that marks the start of Islamic New Year for Muslims around the World. It signifies the martyrdom of Imam Hussain. The agarwood or the oud that is used in this recipe lends it a unique touch. It is simple yet so very flavourful and aromatic. Khoya or mawa is basically added to make it more creamy and luscious. Using of mawa is not followed by all and everyone makes it in their own way but it is been traditionally made in this way in my maternal home like others from many a years now. Enjoy this drink chilled for that awesome experience and lovely flavour.
