Badam Elaichi Milkshake

Another long weekend is coming and we have planned a trip this time. We are all excited and eagerly waiting for the Friday evening. We have gone for many one day trips with my little one, but this is his first long trip in US. Hope he enjoys the journey. So I will be away for just a few days and might miss your wonderful recipes. But I will try to be back to blogging as soon as I get settled at home after the journey :). Wishing all my US buddies a very happy long weekend !!

Meanwhile, enjoy a healthy milkshake with almonds and a pleasant cardamom flavour. This is great for kids who are lazy to drink the plain milk. With the goodness of cardamom and almonds, this sure makes a lovely, refreshing and healthy drink.








What you need?

2-3 tbsp Badam or Almonds ( I had some peeled and sliced almonds with me)
1/2 tsp Cardamom powder
2 cups Milk
Sugar/Honey to taste


How to prepare?

Take a little milk and soak the almonds in it for about 30-45 minutes.In  a blender , add the soaked almonds and make a smooth paste. Now add the rest of the milk and cardamom powder. Blend well. Add sugar or honey according to your taste. Serve it chilled.

Enjoy the refreshing and healthy drink!!

Serves 2

Notes:
* Increase the quantity of almonds for thicker consistency.
* If you like strong flavour of cardamom, do add more.


Since Milk and Almonds are a good source of protein, I am sending this to the COOK IT HEALTHY-PROTEINicious event happening here.



Finally, my friends..........please don't forget to send your wonderful proteinicious recipes to my event :)
