Frequently Asked Questions
Kokum Agal is a salted, unsweetened kokum extract made from kokum juice concentrate blended with water and salt. It offers balanced acidity in a ready-to-use liquid form.
Kokum Agal is an unsweetened extract, making it suitable for cooking or customised beverages. Kokum Syrup, on the other hand, is pre-sweetened and typically used to prepare sharbat-style drinks instantly.
Add 1–2 tablespoons to curries, dals, coconut-based gravies, or lentil broths toward the final stage of cooking. It enhances tang, deepens colour, and balances richness without overpowering the dish.
Yes, with slight adjustments. Use about 1.2 times the quantity when replacing tamarind pulp, and start with a 1:1 ratio when replacing lemon juice, adjusting to taste. One tablespoon of Agal is roughly equal to 3–4 soaked kokum rinds.
Yes. Adding 1–2 teaspoons per 250g of vegetables or protein introduces gentle acidity and a subtle fruit-forward sharpness. It also helps balance richer spice blends in marinades.
Mix 15–30 ml of Agal in a glass of chilled water and stir well. Add a pinch of salt and sweetener if desired, and serve over ice for a refreshing beverage.
No. It is unsweetened. It contains salt but no added sugar.
Is Kokum Agal considered cooling? Traditionally, kokum is regarded as a cooling fruit and is widely enjoyed during warmer months. A diluted kokum drink is often preferred in summer for its light and refreshing character.
Traditionally, kokum is regarded as a cooling fruit and is widely enjoyed during warmer months. A diluted kokum drink is often preferred in summer for its light and refreshing character.
How much is appropriate? Kokum Agal can be enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. Around 15–30 ml diluted in water once daily is generally considered sufficient for regular consumption.
Kokum Juice Concentrate is 100% kokum extract and highly intense. It delivers strong acidity and requires smaller quantities per use. Kokum Agal is made by blending concentrate with water and salt, resulting in a milder, more balanced tang suited for everyday cooking and beverages.
Refrigeration is not required. Store in a cool, dry place at ambient conditions, and keep the bottle tightly sealed after opening to maintain freshness, flavour, and quality.
Product Details
Traditional unsweetened Kokum Agal from the Konkan coast, perfect for cooling drinks, sol kadhi and everyday cooking. A natural digestive, tenderiser and versatile souring agent.
- Kokum – The Functional Charm of the Western Ghats: Made from the fruit of Garcinia indica, native to India’s western coastal belt, agal reflects a balanced expression of this regional ingredient. Compared to the undiluted concentrate, it offers a softer, more rounded acidity while retaining kokum’s inherent functional properties. Across formats and applications, kokum continues to stand out as one of the Konkan region’s most versatile and enduring culinary ingredients.
- Natural Coolant with Everyday Digestive Support: Long valued as a refreshing natural coolant, kokum has traditionally been enjoyed after meals as a gut-friendly digestive. In Ayurveda, it is considered a pitta-pacifying ingredient known for helping reduce excess body heat, acidity and inflammation, making it a flavourful and refreshing way to hydrate and rebalance daily.
- Versatile Souring Agent & Natural Tenderiser: A clean, fruity alternative to tamarind or lime that brings gentle tang to curries, dals and marinades while naturally helping tenderise proteins and even root vegetables like yam. Beyond sol kadhi, it finds its way into mocktails and fusion drinks, becoming a signature tang that keeps returning to everyday cooking and creative beverages alike.
- Rooted in Konkani Culinary Heritage: So deeply intertwined with the Konkan coast that summer feels incomplete without it, kokum Agal finds its way into sol kadhi, kokum saar and simple post-meal digestives. Urban Platter carries this coastal ritual forward by thoughtfully crafting Kokum Agal that keeps the spirit of this refreshed, time-honoured culinary tradition alive.
