Ingredients
- 2 cups milk
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons badam (almond) milk powder
Instructions
- Heat Milk and Sugar: Pour 2 cups of milk into a saucepan or heavy-bottomed pan and add 3 tablespoons of sugar along with 2 teaspoons of badam milk powder. Place the pan over medium heat to start warming the mixture.
- Bring to Boil: Stir the mixture continuously to dissolve the sugar and evenly distribute the almond powder. Continue stirring as the milk comes to a gentle boil to prevent scorching.
- Simmer the Milk: Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the milk simmer gently for 4-5 minutes while stirring occasionally. This process allows the flavors to meld and the milk to thicken slightly.
- Turn Off Heat and Serve: After simmering, turn off the heat. You can serve the badam milk warm or hot immediately for a comforting drink.
- Optional Serving Style: Alternatively, you can chill the badam milk in the refrigerator and serve it cold on hot days for a refreshing treat.
Notes
- Use full-fat milk for a richer and creamier taste.
- Badam milk powder can be substituted with finely ground almonds if necessary.
- Adjust sugar quantity according to your taste preference.
- Continuous stirring prevents the milk from sticking to the pan or burning.
- Chill the prepared milk in the fridge for at least an hour if serving cold.
