Baraf ka gola recipe with step by step photos and instructions- I am sure all of you are well aware of ‘Baraf ka Gola’, a popular Ice Popsicle, also known to be ‘Chuski’, among the locals. Made of crushed ice in the shape of a ball, dipped in flavoured syrups, it is considered the best way to beat the heat during summer months. Quick and easy to make, this frozen delight is so tempting that it takes only a few minutes to bring out the child in everyone.
I tried it in Mumbai for the first time and it was then that I fell in love with this juicy ‘Churmura’ as they call it in that city. It really belongs to this metropolitan area but when you search for it elsewhere, you will find the hawkers moving around with colourful ‘thelas’, selling red, yellow, green and orange ice popsicles, with ‘Bombay ka Ice Gola’ written on their carts.
I have many more kulfi and ice cream recipes:

- Vanilla ice cream
- Oreo ice cream
- Malai Kulfi
- Corn Rasgulla Ice cream
- Chocolate Ice cream

Even you will agree if I say that this mouth-watering variety or rather the recipe of colours is best enjoyed in Holi, the festival of colours. If you ever throw a party for your kids or have already planned one, don’t forget to include this frozen delight in the menu. The best thing about this recipe is that you can customise it the way you want. My favourite flavour combinations are Rose–Blue lagoon and Khus–Kalakhatta. I usually soak the ice Popsicles in them after adding lemon juice and sprinkling chaat masala/Jal-jeera over it. However, you can also plunge it in all the syrups at once or try out three of them together.
Whoever came up with this fusion of tangy flavours and icy syrups really deserves appreciation from us. The next time summer barges in, slurping the icy cool ‘gola’ instead of taking a splash at a nearby pool can be a great idea altogether. However, keep in mind that when getting it ready, you have to be super quick otherwise the ice will melt down.
So what are you waiting for? Go ahead with the recipe and serve yourself and the young ones at your house this amazing frozen treat, without fretting about hygiene. I am sure nobody would say no to this classic burst of colours over gleaming ice.
