About This Drink

Rose and cardamom appear together in biryani, kheer, and lassi — it is one of the foundational flavour pairings of Indian cuisine, rooted in Persian influence and perfected over centuries. Tandooriwala's fizz version is how that tradition looks in a modern cocktail glass.

Bartender's Tips

For deeper floral complexity, replace half the rose syrup with hibiscus cordial. The lime juice is essential — without it, the sweetness becomes cloying. Freshly ground cardamom makes a significant difference over pre-ground.
