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 mint leaves and green chili mixture is dropped into a glass filled with club soda.
Here, Fuljar means full jar as it overflows the big 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 that you make it in an open place, as it fizzes a lot, and some of it even drips 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 as per your needs.
Ingredients
To prepare Fuljar Soda, you will need a few everyday ingredients – green chilies, ginger, mint leaves, freshly squeezed lime juice, sugar, salt, sabja seeds(Tukamaria seeds or basil seeds), and chilled club soda.
Choose the less spicy variety of green chilies. You need them for the taste and not for too much spice.
Adjust the amount of sugar and green chilies as per your taste and preference.
Use freshly squeezed lime juice for the best taste.
Sabja seeds have cooling properties, so including them in your summer beverages is great.
The recipe I have shared in this post is flavored with mint, ginger, and green chilies. You can make many variations of this drink by adding fruits like kiwi, oranges, pomegranates, watermelon, etc.
How To Make Fuljar Soda
Add the following ingredients to the small jar of a blender.
- 2 teaspoon chopped green chilies
- 1 teaspoon chopped ginger
- 15-20 mint leaves
- 2 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
- 3 tablespoon granulated white sugar
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoon water
Blend to make a smooth puree.
Transfer the puree between 4 shot glasses.
Add 1 tablespoon soaked sabja seeds to each glass and stir well using a small spoon.
Now, fill a tall serving glass with chilled club soda until it is ¾th full.
Gently drop the shot glass into the glass with the soda.
The drink will start to fizz like a volcano, so drink it immediately.
Storage Suggestions
Make it fresh! As it has soda, do not store it; otherwise, the drink will not have the required fizz. You can make the mint, chili, and sugar mixture and refrigerate it for up to 2 days.
