Chikoo Milkshake

Chikoo Milkshake is a very healthy and nutritious beverage especially for kids. This smooth shake is prepared with chikoo, milk and sugar. It has very rich, creamy and some granular texture because of chikoo. Chikoo is called sapota or sapodilla in English. It is also called as noseberry and mud apples. Chikoo is in the season this time so I have an idea to make chikoo milkshake. In India chikoo is available during winter and spring.

Chikoo is a brown fruit with a rough skin but sweet brown pulp inside. chikoo is a complete pack of Vitamin E, A and C, all of which are great for skin health and has amazing moisturizing properties. The presence of antioxidants like ascorbic acid, polyphenols, and flavonoids help in reducing wrinkles and makes your skin plumper. Chikoo with the combination of milk is an amazing beverage for kids as milk also a complete food with the richness of calcium and protein. Chikoo is naturally sweet due to natural sugar fructose and sucrose and hence it is energetic too. It has natural dietary fiber that helps to improve digestion related problems.

I love chikoo so whenever it is available in market, I buy them. Chikoo is very sweet in itself so add a little amount of sugar. You can skip it to enjoy its natural sweetness. Use ripe and soft chikoo for making milkshake. Don’t use raw milk for this. At first boil the milk, cool it completely and then use. Serve chikoo shake with breakfast and evening snack or any time when you want.
