GOOSEBERRY SQUASH

HOW TO MAKE:

Wash gooseberries well. Then Pressure cook the berries in 1 cup of water for 15 minutes.

Once the cooker is cooled open the lid and take out the vessel.

Remove the seeds and keep the water for grinding.

Grind the pulp along with ginger to a very fine paste. Add gooseberry water while grinding.

Now strain the paste through a strainer. I got 2 cups juice. So I used 2 1/2 cups sugar.

Make syrup with 1 cup water and 2 1/2 cups sugar. Strain the syrup through a strainer. 

When the syrup is cooled add gooseberry juice to it. and stir well.

You can add preservatives if needed. ( KMS powder 1/8th tsp).

Keep in the refrigerator.

While serving take 1 part syrup and 3 parts water,  add a few ice cubes.
