0 Zafrani Sharbat

Seriously september went too fast for me, may be coz i was busy in cooking ,clicking and scheduling the posts for my long blogging marathon. Eventhough we planned this marathon before few months, somehow i have made many changes in my recipes, somehow am happy that i have accomplished this months blogging marathon successfully. Thank god, i finished this whole month marathon without any difficulties.A month of blogging marathon with themes under Alphabets is definitely a fabulous experience to know more about many recipes which are not that much familiar for me,also learned many more new recipes from my fellow marathoners. All of us have done a fabulous job and love this BM group which is very close to my heart.

Honestly ill be missing the last minute thrills and head breaking recipes search under different alphabets.Trust me for the letter Z,i was between the International or Fusion, but i want to go under International cuisine for this weeks theme,thats why i dont want to cook anything under Fusion dishes.My first choice for todays recipe was between a pulao and a drink. But finally i chosed this super refreshing drink, when i was searching a drink with saffron, i got this drink  from a Pakistani Tv show through google master.This refreshing chilled drink goes for saffron, milk, jellies prepared with agar agar, nuts and sabja seeds, quite an interesting drink rite. You can have this drink when the weather is too hot or as a welcome drink when you have relatives at home. With loads of nuts, this drink tastes simply awesome.

3tbsp Pistachios

3tbsp Almonds

For Jellies:

Bring boil a cup of water with 1tbsp sugar, add in 1/4cup of agar agar pieces or 1tbsp of agar agar powder,cook until the agar agar gets dissolves.

For sharbat:
