We discovered a great idea to make Holi 2023 unique and special. If you are hosting a Holi party at your place, your guests would naturally expect to be served thandai. Surprise them with a different thandai-like drink that will impress them too. Thandai, milkshake, custard – all three rolled into one drink. Interesting, right? This refreshing drink tastes just as good as thandai but offers additional flavours of custard powder, cardamom and saffron. Another reason to make this thandai for Holi is that you can prepare in advance and complete this drink in just 5 minutes on D-day.

Use this pre-mix to make the drink. First, boil milk on the stove. In a separate small bowl, take a couple of spoons of milk. Add some premix powder and mix well.
