Rosewater Soda
Things were crazy last month..i mean crazyyyy good! 
.My sudden india trip was amazing! As exciting as it was , it was so overwhelming that at one point, i had to take it easy (one month with my son and no daddy around…not an easy task ! 
). My son,my sister,niece and myself left for a short trip to india to attend my brother’s wedding reception.We never thought it would happen so soon.I vividly remember the days i used to babysit my brother and i cann’t believe he is married who is hardly 22 years old .None of us got married this young and i strongly believe whatever happens , happens for a reason.We all stood by him when he dared to quit his studies and followed his dreams to be a pilot.We stood by him then and we stand by him now and support him.I wish, pray and hope he reaches many heights…..literally .We couldn’t have found a better bride for him.My sister-in-law is precious! .This trip was very refreshing to me as the drink i am going to share with you guys.This drink is popularly known as panneer soda (not to be mistaken for paneer,the cheese). Rose water is called panneer in tamil (Atleast ,that is how i call it.Correct me if i am wrong guys).Mix this drink just when you are about to serve.
