Instructions

  1. Add almonds, pistachios, cashews, cardamom powder, and saffron to a spice grinder and pulse it a few times to make a coarse powder. Store this masala milk powder in an airtight container. Note: That recipe makes extra masala powder, around 6 to 8 servings.
  2. Add a teaspoon of water to a stainless steel saucepan and then add milk to it. Adding a little bit of water will help the milk from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
  3. Cook on medium heat until the milk comes to a rolling boil. Lower the heat and stir in 2 tablespoons of masala powder for each cup of milk. Allow the milk to simmer on low heat for 2 to 3 minutes.
  4. Pour the milk into cups. Garnish with sliced pistachios and a few strings of saffron. Enjoy hot.

Notes

  • Note that the recipe makes  1 cup of Masala Milk Powder. Store at room temperature for a week, for longer shelf life, refrigerate it. You will only need 2 tablespoons for each cup of milk.
  • Unsweetened almond milk or oat milk can be used instead of regular milk
  • Any combination of nuts can be used
  • Traditionally sugar is used but you can also use honey, maple syrup, or other natural sweeteners
  • To serve cold, chill the milk in the refrigerator
