Boil the sugar and water for 6 minutes, until the sugar fully dissolves.
Remove the syrup from the heat, add the rosewater and lemon juice, and let it cool.
Pour the cooled syrup into a shallow container, freeze for 3 hours, and scrape with a fork every 30 minutes.
Boil the rice noodles in boiling water for 2 minutes, then transfer to cold water and drain.
Mix the noodles into the semi-frozen syrup.
Freeze the noodle syrup for 60 more minutes so ice crystals remain visible between the fine strands.
Serve cold with sour cherry syrup and lime slices.
💡 Tip: Do not over-soften the rice noodles; when the fine strands keep a little bite inside the frozen syrup, faloodeh finds its identity.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve in small glass bowls as a summer dessert with sour cherry syrup drops and lemon slices if desired.
