Summer is super officially here and I am always opening the refrigerator to make myself a cold drink. It is necessary to take a lot of fluids to keep you sane in the super hot weather. Nannari sarbath is made using nannari syrup concentrate. Nannari Sarbath concentrate is available in the super market shelves but its laden with artificial colours, flavors and additives. The syrups available in the market doesn’t taste like nannari anymore. Its easy to prepare at home and the clean taste of the sarbath is so delicious that you will want to make another batch. Home made nannari syrup concentrate lasts for more than a month in the refrigerator. Here is how to do it.

The Nannari roots needs to be cleaned. Gently hammer the root to break it and remove the white inner part. It will come off easily. Discard the white part.

The bark or the outer part of the root alone is used for making sarbath. The bark has a wonderful aroma. You can smell it as you start breaking the root.

    I am a diabetic but very fond of nannari since my teenage days, even now it is irresistible hence I request you to suggest any replacement for sugar or even better if it possible to prepare without sugar, will it taste good without sugar?
