Thandai Kulfi
Who doesn't love frozen desserts? Thandai Kulfi is a creamy concoction that has delicate fragrance and taste of traditional thandai and it's frozen!
Kulfi is the desi version to western ice cream and gelatos. With Holi festival around the corner, I decided to make this Kulfi using the Thandai Masala.
As you all know thandai is a very rich and tasty drink made with milk, various nuts, poppy seeds and spices. Thandai is significantly prepared for holi festival and mahashivratri.
Thandai Kulfi is almost similar to the Kesar Badam Kulfi with a slight twist.
It’s so creamy and so yummy, you would not want to miss out on this one! If you’re planing to host a dinner party or Holi party at home and don’t have the time to prepare a fancy dessert, then this should be your go-to recipe.This recipe is surely gonna impress your family and friends!
