Notes

Tips

  1. Soak the dry fruits: Soaking the dry fruits in water for a few hours will help them to soften and blend easily. Soaking can improve the digestion and absorption of nutrients in dry fruits.
  2. Peel almond skin: The skin of almonds can be slightly bitter and may affect the taste and texture of the milkshake.
  3. Sweetener: I did not use any sweetener, but you can use sweeteners of your choice, like sugar, coconut sugar, maple syrup, and honey.
  4. Ice cream: You can also add a scoop of vanilla ice cream to make the shake thicker and creamier.
  5. Use any dried fruits: You can use any combination of dry fruits that's available to you and make this milkshake.
 

Variations

  • Add Fruits: You can add fruits like apples, bananas, strawberries, or mangoes, along with dry fruits and milk.
  • Add Chocolate: You can add a tablespoon of cocoa powder along with milk and dry fruits to make a rich chocolaty dry fruit milkshake.
  • Spices: You can add a pinch of cinnamon, nutmeg, or saffron to make a spiced milkshake.
  • Oats: You can add Oatmeal to make a filling and healthy breakfast milkshake.
