About Fuljar Soda

Fuljar Soda is a drink from Kerala that is becoming more popular due to its unique method of preparation. It erupts like a volcano when a shot glass filled with a mint leaves and green chili mixture is dropped into a glass filled with club soda.

Here, “Fuljar” means “full jar,” as it refers to the large glass used for drinking this soda. Spicy, sweet, and tangy, it is so refreshing that just one sip will give you instant relief from the scorching heat outside. It is also popularly prepared during the month of Ramzan.

While preparing it, ensure you do so in an open place, as it fizzes a lot and some may even drip down. So, if you don’t want to spoil your expensive furniture or linen, try this fuljar soda recipe in an open space.

This recipe is vegan and gluten-free. You can easily scale it up as per your needs.
