Hari gulfi ("green ice cream") is the north Indian slang name, in the anthropologist Khwaja Hasan's account of 1975, for gulfi, the indigenous ice cream, mixed with bhang. In the cities, Hasan wrote, bhang "may also be added to the milk" of the ice cream.[1]: 240
Earlier sources record ice cream with hemp in India without this name. The Indian Hemp Drugs Commission reported in 1894 that in Calcutta the drug was "occasionally used to flavour ice-cream".[2]: 158 In 1957 I. C. and R. N. Chopra wrote that ice-cream containing bhang was "sometimes available in large towns during the hot weather".[3] R. J. Bouquet's survey of 1950 in the Bulletin on Narcotics listed kulfi, from "India and occasionally Egypt", among the sweets containing cannabis.[4]
