One of my absolutely favorite drinks! Very easy to make and if you follow this recipe you will end up with yummmm Thandai! So refreshing and so perfect!
To make Thandai Masala: Let Tava get hot and take off the stove. Dry roast all the nuts and seeds (Almonds, Pistachios, Fennel Seeds, Black Peppercorns, Poppy Seeds) on the hot tava just to get off all the moisture level. Once they cool down, add all the roasted nuts and seeds along with Dry Rose Petals and Cinnamon, Nutmeg & Cardamom Powder to a grinder and grind it into a powder. Your Thandai Masala is now ready! Transfer it into an airtight glass jar and store it in the refrigerator.
To make Thandai: You can simply add 1 tbsp of Thandai Masala, 1 cup of Whole Milk, and Sugar to taste into a food blender and blend until smooth, then serve over ice. Alternatively, as preferred, add the masala and sugar into the milk and let it come to a boil. Now cool it down and add it into a food blender, blending until smooth. Serve over ice. Garnish with a few Saffron Strands and Dry Edible Rose Petals.
