In the year 1907, Hakeem Hafiz Abdul Majeed, the founder of Unani herbal medicine and Hamdard Dawakhana, invented this Sharbat. According to the information, during the summer days, people are more prone to dehydration and heat stroke, so Hakeem Abdul Majeed wanted to make a medicine that people could drink even in the heat.
