Salam ,
Does anyone have recipe on how to make shikanjbeen with rooh afza. I had it at few ppl’s home but I am not in touch with them to ask for the recipe.
Also does anyone have exact recipe to make limo pani. We don’t get the sachets here so would like to make it at home.
Re: Rooh Afza and shikanjbeen
i had it but sorry i can't find it...i had it together in a binder that had recipes for:
-how to make rice

Re: Rooh Afza and shikanjbeen

you're not trolling? :(
Sikanjbeen and limo pani is the same thing. Sikanjbeen with rooh afza is just rooh afza with a lemon sqeezed in it!
No I’m not trolling.
Also I tried making rooh afza and squeezing lime juice in it, does not taste like shikanjbeen.
Yes I know both if them are same thing 
if I could get my hands on limo panic satchets I would not be asking for the recipe .

^ nit necessary they all would taste the same
Re: Rooh Afza and shikanjbeen

im nto sure what limo paani tht ur referring to tastes like...but to me it had a very "familiar" taste...as if it was something I had in pak (cz I never drank that kind of stuff in US). its worth a shot but..w/e
Re: Rooh Afza and shikanjbeen

NO, they are NOT! **shikanjabeen is a thick paste** of sugar and lemon juice that people in olden days used to lick with fingers. since it was so 'khaTtaa' [sour], you would see skin of the forehead shrivel and, hence, the name 'shikanjabeen'! [shikan = shirivel; jabeen = forhead] given to it...sharbat shikanjabeen is it's modern version.
Indian Beverage Company, Kissan, used to make ShikanJabeen and market it in bottles...we used to dilute it to make sharbat.
Re: Rooh Afza and shikanjbeen
Acc to my knowledge and from what I have had in Paksitan,shikanjabeen is just a desi lemonade.That is lemons and sugars in water and if you add Rooh afza to it,it becomes rooh afza wali shikanjbeen.
If you are talking about the powdered limo pani thing (something like Tang) they had back home,oh it was yummy.I have not tried anything in the US that is close to it,but try making it with green limes,sugar and a tiny pinch of kala namak (not sure what you call it in English..!).It will not be the same but tastes good..!I always like a very very tiny bit of kala namak in home made limeade or lemonade.
Chips you got it right that is what I.am.talking about. Do you mind sharing ratio of sugar, lime juice.
Can't taste it while fasting so would like a set ratio so as to not go wrong.
Oooh my goodness!
I just tried these a few days ago my self. I dono what the heck limo pani is… but the Mojito stuff… om nom nom! :yumm: SOOO good!

It is not a usual for iftaars and also I just eye ball the ingredients depending on how much I am making.Maybe if I am making it out of juice of 2 lemons,I will add 2-3 packets of Splenda and 3 glasses of water and ice and some salt.
Maybe try making some and adjust the lemon juice and sugar acc to your liking,before Ramadan and that way you will know how you like it even if you cannot taste it.
Re: Rooh Afza and shikanjbeen
OMG IT IS ISNT IT!!!
Re: Rooh Afza and shikanjbeen
I tried the Crystal light mojito thing.It is great...!
It has a taste of mint in the background which the limopani thing does not,but it is some good tasting stuff..!
