The Floral Tint

It is a floral, creamy delight. Rose syrup is mixed with evaporated milk to get that perfect shade of pastel pink. The balance must be right so it is fragrant but not like drinking perfume. If the mixture is too thin, it loses its signature velvety mouthfeel.

Mamak Mixing

Order it ice cold at a prata shop. A good version is thick enough to be indulgent but refreshing enough to cut through spicy food. Look for the official halal mark on the menu board before you place your order.
