  • While the milk is getting heated up, remove 2 to 3 tablespoons of the hot milk from the pan and transfer to a small bowl. Crush saffron strands between your fingers and add it to the hot milk. Let it sit until it gets a nice yellow color.

  • Then add the sugar and mix until it dissolved. Turn off the heat.
  • Add the saffron-milk mixture to the pan and stir. Let the thandai sit like this for 30 minutes.This is important for the milk to absorb all the flavors of the spices before we strain it.
