In a blender, add the skim milk, low-fat condensed milk, and rose syrup. Blend the mixture until it is smooth and well combined.
Into serving glasses, add a layer of the soaked almond gum at the bottom.
Pour over the blended milk mixture evenly between the glasses.
Top each glass with crushed ice, distributing it evenly.
Add a scoop of low-fat vanilla ice cream to each glass as a topping.
Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing low-fat Jigarthanda.
