Badam Milk

I love Badam Milk! Delicately flavored with cardamom, nuts in this cold drink, cooling not only be tasty, nutritious that powerful a punch too! They often do so for my son ... much as I enjoy it. Badam milk cold is a great summer cooler but if you use the hot milk to make it, is a great winter drink too! This recipe yields about 4 glasses of Badam milk.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup almonds 
  • 1 cup pistachios
  • 3 cups of hot / cold milk
  • Sugar to taste
  • 2/3 tsp cardamom powder
  • 2 tablespoons kewra essence (available in grocery stores in India) - optional
  • 2 teaspoons rose water

Preparation: Grind the almonds and pistachios to a smooth paste in your food processor. Add a little milk to do this. A lot of people like removing the skin from the almonds before grinding. I do not do this as the skin contains many nutrients. You can if you want to soak the almonds in hot water for 5 minutes. When soaked, press the almonds between your thumb and index finger. The skin can easily slide. Add milk, sugar, cardamom powder, kewra essence (if using) and rose water. Mix well. Serve hot / cold in a tall glass.
