Holi Special Thandai Recipe

The festival of Holi not only brings along with it tons of food, guijya, and colors but also gallons of thandai and badam milk. While some people may like to spike theirs with bhang, we’d like to our drinks to skip the madness.

Thandai is a traditional flavored milk-based beverage, which is uber refreshing and can calm down even The Hulk. A special during Holis, this drink is loaded with dry fruits, spices, and sugar that give it the trademark Indian earmark. Follow this recipe to concoct this refreshing festive drink in your kitchen.
