1. Thandai Power Smoothie: The OG Summer Cooler

Imagine Holi vibes but in a glass. Thandai is that one Indian drink that just screams refreshing, and we’re turning it into a smoothie that’s as creamy as it is energizing. Packed with almonds, cashews, fennel, and a hint of saffron, this is your golden ticket to beating the heat.

• 2 tbsp Peanut Butter (because protein is life!)

• 1 tbsp thandai powder (DIY or store-bought, no judgment)

• 1 tbsp honey

• 4-5 ice cubes

How to Make It: Blend everything together until smooth, pour it into a tall glass, and sip like royalty. Want to extra it up? Top it with some slivered almonds and rose petals. Boom summer, conquered!

2. Masala Chai Banana Smoothie: Breakfast with a Kick

Mornings are tough, but you know what makes them better? A smoothie that’s basically chai, but creamier. This one’s for all the chai lovers who need that caffeine kick but also want to feel healthy.

3. Rose & Almond Dream Smoothie: Pretty in Pink

Some drinks just feel luxurious, and this is one of them. With the aromatic charm of rose and the goodness of almonds, this smoothie is basically your desi take on a boujee café drink. And let’s be real anything pink just tastes better.
