Holi is just around the corner and summer is on the way. During this time the most featured drink is thandai which is spicy, nutty and saffron flavored beverage.

This chilled drink is highly energetic, nourishing and known as body coolant on hot summer.

There are some traditional methods to make this flavored milk but the traditional way is simply a long method like soaking, grinding and all.
But this recipe is the most simplest and easiest way to make this thandai with thandai masala so that every time you can whip up in jiffy and serve just like that.

Put all the ingredients in a blender except milk and sugar.
Blend it to a powder.
Boil the milk and bring it to a room temperature.
Mix 3 tsp of the powder with milk and add sugar.
It's better if you keep this now in the refrigerator for at-least 2-3 hours or overnight before serving so that it gets enough time to infuse.
