Today's recipe is a rich and refreshing badam milk with a beautiful aroma. This is a very popular Indian milk made out of fresh badam / almond paste with whole milk.
This is my usual recipe during the hot summer. Sometimes I use both types of almond milk. The almond milk with almond homemade powder is already posted. This is the 2nd method using almond paste.
This almond milk is always served during festivals or any special functions at my home (my mom & my MIL). Can also be served with hot or cold. It is one of my favorite drinks.
