Ingredients

  • 1 and ½ cups milk
  • 4 cloves garlic

  • Simmer for 7-10 minutes.

Notes

  • You can slice garlic and add , or chop into small pieces and add. Or you can crush garlic using a garlic press and use it.
  • You can even strain the milk and drink it but it is beneficial to eat the cooked garlic pieces too so I do not recommend straining.
  • For kids may be you can strain and feed. Else mash the garlic with milk and feed it.
  • You can have garlic milk in any time of the day.
  • For lactating mother you can give this garlic milk for 3-4 days in a week.
  • Adjust sweetener according to your taste and preference.
