sharbat

Where it comes from

Borrowed from Hindustani, from Classical Persian شَرْبَت (šarbat). Doublet of sherbet and sorbet.

noun sharbats

A West and South Asian sweet drink prepared from fruits or flower petals; a sherbet. The Arabs brought sugarcane, mulberries, and citrus fruits (along with many things that have nothing to do with granita), and innumberable recipes for sharbat, their sweetened, aromatic drinks flavored with fruits, blossoms, and spices, and often chilled with mountain snow.
