Phalsa has a good cooling effect and helps in blood purification
Celebrity Chef Kunal Kapur recently took to Instagram to spread awareness about the not so popular Indian Sherbet Berry, aka Phalsa. The sweet and sour flavour of the berry is very similar to grapes and jamuns and is perfect to munch on during hot summer days. The reason behind its low production is its low shelf life. Phalsa ripens in small batches and needs to be handpicked individually. If that wasn't enough, it also needs to be produced locally and consumed quickly since it is extremely delicate and cannot be transported. This could be the reason why Phalsa is restricted to very few cities. Since overripe Phalsa berries are perfect for a refreshing summer drink, knowingly or unknowingly, many of us do have memories of drinking phalsa sherbet during summers.
