Crafting a refreshing, time-honored fruit cordial at home is a wonderful way to beat the summer heat. This traditional Persian syrup pairs the unique fragrance of fresh quinces with a bright splash of citrus juice. It delivers a perfect balance of sweet and sour notes that instantly elevates a simple glass of cold water. Mix up a batch to keep your family cool and hydrated on sunny days.

This dish is known as Polow in Iranian cuisine.
