How to make Kesar Badam Milk

Recipe by Naiya Sheth: Again a very popular and easy traditional drink. Basically, piping hot kesar badam milk/ saffron almond milk is consumed during winter. But I love chilled milk so, at the time of fasting, I tried to have such cool milkshakes in summer. And this homemade recipe is a yummy and healthy result of it. To make it richer I added milk powder and my all time favourite vanilla ice cream. So let's try this stomach filler recipe of Kesar Badam Milk as bedtime milk today.
