Instructions
- Place all the ingredients in a clean, dry coffee/ masala grinder.
- Grind to a fine powder. At this stage, you can sieve the powder and and grind the residue again. I skipped this step and left my mix a little chunky.
- Store in air tight jar and refrigerate.
To make Thandai:
- Blend a glass of milk ( I used Almond Milk), some sugar or any sweetener of your choice ( I used jaggery powder), according to your taste and 2 tsp of this mix in your blender. Taste and adjust for sweetness. Chill and enjoy!
