Notes

  • Crush cardamom pod – Slightly crush a whole green cardamom pod to release flavor. Don’t powder it just crush it coarsely.
  • Cook gently – Cook the milk on low heat for a few minutes so the cardamom flavor gets absorbed fully into the milk.
  • Adjust sweetness – Add cane sugar or jaggery after switching off the heat to avoid curdling.
  • Straining – Strain before serving to remove cardamom bits and get a smooth, comforting drink.
  • Full-fat milk – Using whole or full cream milk gives the drink a rich, creamy taste and better texture.
