Time 22m

Yield 10 glasses a guess, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups white sugar
1 cup water
1/2 lemon, juice strained
pink food coloring, few drops (I say optional)
1/3 cup rose water

Steps:

  • Put sugar and water into a pan and stir over medium heat until dissolved.
  • Bring to a boil and add lemon juice.
  • Boil without stirring, for 10 minutes, skimming when necessary.
  • Add colouring to syrup to achieve a deep pink - it will be lighter when diluted later.
  • Add rose water and boil 3 minutes longer. Remove from heat, cool, bottle and seal.
  • To serve, put 2-3 tbs syrup or to taste, in a glass (I use more but maybe my glasses are big) then fill with iced water.

Categories     Beverages

Time 3m

Yield 1 glass, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

3/4 cup chilled water
3 tablespoons date syrup (dibis also called date molasses)
2 teaspoons rose water (I prefer Iranian)
crushed ice
1 tablespoon pine nuts or 1 tablespoon blanched almond halve

Steps:

  • Mix all but nuts.
  • Top with them.
  • Enjoy on a warm day or night!

Tips:

  • Use ripe grapes: The riper the grapes, the sweeter the jallab will be.
  • Choose a good quality of rose water: Rose water is a key ingredient in jallab, so make sure to use a good quality brand.
  • Don't skip the straining step: Straining the jallab removes any impurities and gives it a smooth texture.
  • Chill the jallab before serving: Chilled jallab is more refreshing and flavorful.
  • Garnish with nuts and pomegranate seeds: Nuts and pomegranate seeds add a nice crunch and flavor to jallab.

Conclusion:

Jallab is a delicious and refreshing drink that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Whether you are looking for a healthy alternative to sugary drinks or simply want to try something new, jallab is a great choice.
