This syrup is made of refined sugar flavored with distillations of various herbs to create a thick squash. The herbs used to prepare the Qarshi Jam-e-Shirin include sandalwood and vetiver, both of which are known to be anti inflammatory, analgesic and having a cooling effect. Drinking a chilled serving of the Qarshi Jam e Shirin helps you to immediately cool down after strenuous exercise or in blistering summer days.
