Rose Lemonade/Rose Sharbath Recipe with full video & step by step photos. Rose Lemonade/Rose Sharbath Recipe is an easy to make summer drink. Rose Lemonade is nothing but a Lemonade flavored with Rose Syrup. Rose Flavor blends perfectly with the Lemonade and tastes delicious and refreshing. This Rose Lemonade reminds me of the Red color Sharbath sold in road side shops during summer time in India. Those mobile shops used to sell different color sharbath juices and they are my favorite next to fresh fruit juices. The red color is prepared with Rose Syrup, Orange ones are prepared using Nanari Syrup. These flavored lemonades can be prepared at home very easily and makes a perfect welcome drink to guests or party/special occasions. I used store bought Rose Syrup to make this Rose Lemonade. 

you can use Roof Azha too. Using sugar syrup is recommended for this drink but you can also use powdered sugar. Adding soaked sabja/sweet basil seeds is optional but it adds lovely texture and also healthy to include during warm weather to beat the heat

Ingredients

1. Lemon Juice  2 Tbsp
2. Sugar Syrup* 1/3 cup 
3. Chilled Water 1 cup 
4. Rose Syrup 1-2Tbsp(littleless than 2Tbsp) 
5. Rose Water 1 tsp 
6. Ice Cubes as needed 
7. Sabja seeds  2 tsp

Notes:
*For Sugar Syrup - take equal amount of sugar and water in a sauce pan. Bring it to boil until sugar dissolves and the liquid turns slightly sticky & shiny. No string consistency needed. Just sticky liquid is enough. Will share the complete tutorial video soon.
This sugar syrup can be store in an air tight container in the refrigerator for up to a month. 

For lemonades sugar syrup gives perfect sweet taste than the sugar. 

For a healthier option you can replace the sugar syrup with honey. 

I used Organic Raw Cane sugar to make the syrup so that syrup color looks bit dark.

Using rose water is optional, just added for extra rose flavor. You can skip or replace with 1 or 2 drops of rose essence/extract.

Adjust sweetness according to your taste the above recipe gives you a perfect sweetness but for people you like mild sweetness can reduce 1 or 2 tsp of sugar syrup.

I used juice of one good ripe lime. You can use yellow lemons too.
