A Ramazan staple, Roohafza was recently in the news for fostering Indo-Pak bonhomie. Here are a few cooler, newer versions of the drink

How can we forget the rose-flavoured drink that most of us have chugged with unabashed pleasure during the scorching Indian summer for most of our lives? But last month, news broke that Roohafza had gone missing from the shelves in India. As palpitating patrons took to the Internet to lament, Usama Qureshi, MD and CEO of Hamdard Pakistan, rose to the occasion and offered to send trucks of the much-loved drink via the Wagah border. Meanwhile, in the city, mixologists and chefs are giving the syrup a heady twist, and the good news is, it's back in production, too. Here's how you can make the most of this sugary beverage.
The tea party
Enjoy a fruity tea made with black tea concentrate, the popular rose syrup and limejuice. The rose tea (R125) available at this restaurant will help you stay hydrated through the last few days of summer.
