Phalsa Margarita / Grewia Margarita#phalsalovers#asiancuisinebyfarzana

The Phalsa Margarita is a refreshing twist on the classic Mexican cocktail, blending the unique, tangy flavor of phalsa berries (Grewia asiatica) with the zest of lime and the punch of tequila. It's a vibrant, purple-hued summer drink that’s both exotic and revitalizing—perfect for hot days and festive nights alike.

History of Phalsa (Grewia Asiatica)

Phalsa is a tropical berry native to India and Southeast Asia. Historically, it has been used in traditional medicine for its cooling properties and is especially popular during the intense summer months. It was first cultivated in the Indian subcontinent and continues to be a beloved seasonal fruit due to its sweet-sour taste and health benefits like aiding digestion, cooling the body, and being rich in antioxidants

What Is a Margarita (Mocktail Version)?

Originally, a margarita is a Mexican drink made with alcohol. However, the non-alcoholic or mocktail version keeps the same refreshing balance of citrus and fruit flavors without any intoxicants. This halal-friendly version uses lemon or lime juice, fruit puree (in this case, phalsa), and sparkling or soda water to create a zesty, rejuvenating drink—free from alcohol but full of flavor.

And kill them wherever you overtake them and expel them from wherever they have expelled you, and fitnah (persecution) is worse than killing. And do not fight them at Al-Masjid al-Haram until they fight you there. But if they fight you, then kill them. Such is the recompense of the disbelievers. But if they cease, then indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful. And fight them until there is no more fitnah and [until] the religion is solely for Allah. But if they cease, then there is to be no aggression except against the oppressors." اور اللہ کی راہ میں ان سے لڑو جو تم سے لڑیں اور زیادتی نہ کرو، بے شک اللہ زیادتی کرنے والوں کو پسند نہیں کرتا اور انہیں قتل کرو جہاں پاؤ اور انہیں نکال دو جہاں سے انہوں نے تمہیں نکالا ہے، اور غلبہ شرک قتل سے زیادہ سخت ہے، اور مسجد حرام کے پاس ان سے نہ لڑو جب تک کہ وہ تم سے یہاں نہ لڑیں، پھر اگر وہ تم سےلڑیں تم بھی انہیں قتل کرو، کافروں ...
