follow this method if making the kokum sherbet from dry kokum peels:
1: rinse the dry kokum in water.
2: soak them in 2 cups of water for 3-4 hours.
3: collect the kokum in a blender and reserve the water.
4: grind them with some of the reserved water to a smooth mixture. strain and keep aside.
5: boil sugar with the remaining reserved water till the mixture becomes thick.
6: cool the sugar syrup and then add the kokum mixture to it.
7: add the powdered cardamom and cumin powder.
8: mix well and store in an airtight bottle or jar in the fridge. if you do not want to make sugar syrup, then just dissolve the sugar in the kokum extract. in this case you don't need 2 cups of water. just 1 cup water can be used to soak the dry kokums and then grind them to a smooth paste. also you will need 1 cup sugar.
