  5. Hi Pallavi,
    Solkadhi means Kadhi made with 'Kokum' which is also known as 'sol' or 'sul'. Therefore there is no way to replace kokum with any other ingredients. Then it won't be solkadhi..

    Btw you will get 'Kokum Concentrate' which is also known as 'Kokum Aagal'. You can use this concentrate to make solkadhi.
    'kokum Aagal' is unsweetened and pure concentrate of Kokum and it is different than 'kokum sharbat'.
