Mango Piyush is a rich and creamy drink made by blending curd with shrikand, mango pulp, nuts and flavours. This recipe is made in summer when mangoes are sweet and easy to fin. It has a creamy taste with a mild tang from the curd.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup curd
  • ½ cup shrikhand
  • ½ cup mango chopped roughly
  • 1 cup milk boiled and cooled
  • 2 teaspoon sugar
  • ½ teaspoon cardamom powder
  • a pinch nutmeg powder optional
  • 1 tablespoon pistachios chopped
  • a pinch saffron

Instructions

  • To a mixing bowl add curd, then add milk and shrikhand (I used store bought).
  • Add cardamom powder, saffron strands and nutmeg powder along with required sugar.
  • To a blender, transfer the other ingredients to the mixer jar. Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust consistency according to preference. Thin it by adding more milk if you want.
  • Serve Mango Piyush chilled!

Notes

  • Use ripe mango – I choose mangoes which are soft and smells sweet.
  • Use thick curd – I always use thick curd for this drink. Thin curd makes the piyush watery and lose the creamy taste.
  • Blend till smooth – I blend till there are no lumps in the jar. Shrikhand is thick and it takes some time to blend well.
  • Add milk slowly – I add the milk little by little and check the thickness. It is easy to thin it later but you cannot make it thick again.
  • Chill well – I keep the drink in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before serving. Cold Piyush feels more refreshing in the hot weather.
  • Soak the saffron – I soak the saffron in warm milk for few minutes. The colour and aroma spreads well in the whole drink.
