Ingredients

Faludeh

  • 4 cups water
  • 1 cups sugar
  • 2 tablespoons rose water
  • About 2 tablespoons fresh lime or lemon juice
  • 8 ounces thin rice noodles or Chinese rice sticks broken into 1-inch pieces
  • About ½ cup berry syrup optional

Berry Syrup

  • 2 ½ cups fresh or frozen cherries or berries
  • 3 cups sugar
  • ½ teaspoon lemon or lime juice
  • Water as needed

Instructions

  • In a medium saucepan, stir the water and sugar over low heat until the sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Increase the heat to medium and bring to a boil. Let cool. Stir in the rose water and lime juice. Pour into ice cube trays and freeze.
  • Soak the noodles in cold water to cover for 1 hour. Drain. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook until tender but not mushy, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain, rinse with cold water, and drain again. Refrigerate until chilled
  • Crush the frozen sugar syrup cubes or pulse in a food processor. Energetically stir together the noodles with the crushed ice until well mixed. Transfer to servings bowls and serve immediately or freeze. If frozen, let stand at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes to slightly soften, then crush with a spoon. If using, drizzle the syrup over the top.
  • For the berry syrup. In a small pot mix berries with sugar, coat well. Heat over low and cook until bubbly. Remove from heat and mash with a fork. Pass through a strainer and cool until ready to use.
