Method
How to make Apple Milkshake
- Wash, peel and core apples. Chop them and add to the blender.
- Add milk, sweetener, cinnamon, ice cubes and nuts (optional). Blend until smooth & frothy. (If you don't have a powerful blender, add only half the milk initially and blend until smooth. Later add the rest of the milk and ice cubes if using. Blend until frothy.)
- Pour apple milkshake to serving glass and sprinkle cinnamon if you want.
Optional Tip to Make Vegan Milk
- Nut milk: You may make your own zero waste vegan milk by grinding 3 tablespoons almond flour/meal or 12 soaked & peeled almonds with ¼ cup water until smooth. Use a small nut grinder or a chutney jar for this. Later add ½ to ¾ cup water and grind again. No straining required. You can also do the same with cashew nuts.
- Coconut milk: To make your own, grind ¼ to ⅓ cup fresh/frozen coconut (at room temp) with ¼ cup water until smooth and thick. Add more water and grind again to make smooth coconut milk. Strain the milk and use.
