We are well into the
summer wedding season in North America. In
many cultures, weddings are associated with particular foods. In Mexico, a spicy lamb stew called birria is
the centerpiece of the traditional wedding meal. The
English serve fruitcake as their wedding dessert. In Italy, five sugar-covered almonds known as
Italian confetti or Jordan almonds are given to guests as favors. The almonds symbolize happiness,
longevity, health, prosperity, and fertility.
In my community, the traditional wedding dish is beef biryani. The meal is finished with ladoos (sweet
chickpea balls) and gathiya (savory deep fried chickpea dough). In addition to food, sherbet (a rose-flavored
milk drink) is traditionally served at weddings, engagements, and other celebratory events. This sweet beverage is thought to augur a
sweet marriage.
It is easy to make and keeps for several days (without the nut garnish).
Ingredients
6 cups whole milk
1/2 can (7oz)
sweetened condensed milk
2-3 teaspoons rose
water or a few drops of rose essence
2-3 teaspoons vanilla
extract
3-6 drops red food

finely chopped almonds
and pistachio for garnish
Directions
1.
In a large
pitcher combine the first five ingredients.
Use a long spoon to mix well.
Adjust rose, vanilla, and food color as desired.
2.
Pour into
6 to 10 glasses. Garnish with nuts and
serve.

Looks really tasty. Mexican drinks are very varied and tasty. Casa Adelita sells drinks and also treats and other traditional nutritive mexican food with very luxury confectionery.
Writing on any subject is not an easy task, when you write on any subject it is very difficult. Anyone who thinks that he will write something easily on any subject, then his thinking is very wrong, I do not know that perhaps those people will have to put so much mind. Whatever you have written in your post, it has been written very beautifully, you are a person writing a good post, the more you are praised, the less it is.
