Soak the tamarind in 1 liter lukewarm water for 30 minutes.
Add the remaining water, sugar, cinnamon, and cloves, then boil for 20 to 25 minutes.
Strain the sherbet, add the lemon juice, and chill in the refrigerator.
💡 Tip: Soak the tamarind in lukewarm water before boiling, so the pulp releases into the water more easily.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve with plenty of ice and fresh mint.
