How to Make Almond Milk | Badam Milk Recipe | Kesar Badam Milk | Summer Recipes | Payal’s Passion

We all remember the badam milk served in the Indian marriages. The thick, luscious milk with bits of almonds (Badam) & the taste of saffron (Kesar) leaves you asking for more and you always think – How to Make Badam Milk at Home?

Today we will make this super delicious almond milk at home. This is flavoured milk and not milk shake. The word milkshake is a combination of the word ‘milk’, & the word ‘shake’. Shake comes from the Old English ‘sceacan’ which means ‘move quickly back and forth’. Milkshake was first recorded in 1889 but the drink became popular after the 1930s.

Almond Milk ingredients are limited and this flavored milk is made by reducing the milk. Soaked & ground almonds are added during the reducing process. The milk is flavored with Cardamom (elaichi powder) and saffron (Kesar) soaked in warm milk. They make it an aromatic & flavorful drink! This is an age old traditional ayurvedic recipe and is an amazing immunity builder. It helps in stronger bones & removes constipation. A lot of people use almond flour but the milk tastes best with freshly soaked and peeled almonds. I garnish it with almond shavings and dried rose petals.

This Kesar Badam Milk is the best summer drink recipe for kids. It is refreshing and nutritious at the same time. Thus, without further delay let us learn how to make this luscious and refreshing Kesar Badam Milk.
