Notes
- The sweetness of the rooh afza (rose syrup) was sufficient, and I did not add any sugar. For a plain sago drink, skip rose syrup and add sweeteners like sugar, honey, condensed milk or stevia.
- To make this drink vegan, use any non-dairy milk like coconut or almond.
- If you add vermicelli instead of sabudana, this becomes a falooda.
- Any leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for 1-2 days.
- For a mango sago drink, skip rose syrup and add mango puree and sugar, and for a strawberry sago drink, add the strawberry puree and sugar to taste.
- For mild flavored drinks, reduce the amount of rose syrup and add sugar to taste.
- You can even reduce or increase the amount of sabudana (sago) as you prefer.
