Preparation:

  1. Transfer the soaked walnuts to a blender and blend into a rough crumb consistency. Do not over blend, or you’ll start to make walnut butter.

  3. Boil 3 cups water. Cook the falooda sev as per the package instructions. Pour in a colander and rinse in cold water, drain all the water, and set aside.
  4. Add 1-2 tablespoons of rose syrup per glass at the bottom. Add 2 tablespoons of soaked basil seeds. 5. Add a layer of the cooked falooda sev. Sprinkle some chopped walnuts.
