Make a Mango Mastaani (Mango Milkshake) is shared in the course or make it as per your style, with a detailed step-by-step procedure along with images.

For the mango mastani, these are the ingredients I used.

Ingredients

Mango
Milk
Ice cream
Sugar
Dates
Raisins

Procedure

I washed magoes and removed the bark and then chopped them into pieces. The mango had a sweet taste as it was alredy ripe so I didn’t need to soak them in sugar.

I put the mango into the blender and allowed to blend smoothly to make a mango purée.

I added a cup of milk to it and also allowed to blend well.

I cut the toppings into tiny pieces and set aside to add to the mango milk shake.

I poured the mango milk shake into the cup until it was almost full.

Then I added ice creams to the top of the mango milk shake and added my toppings to it.

The milk shake was ready to be served.
