SLC S-32-W6// "Traditional Milkshakes that beat the heat- Jackfruit Milkshake"
Hello!
Warm greetings to you all, I'm glad to be part of this challenge, as we all know summer can be very hot, and staying hydrated is important for our health. While many people enjoy soft drinks, homemade fruit milkshakes are a healthier option because they provide essential vitamins, minerals, and energy. Jackfruit is one of the tropical fruits that can be transformed into a rich and creamy milkshake, making it an excellent choice for both children and adults.
Come with me as I'm going to prepare a refreshing jackfruit milkshake, a delicious and nutritious drink that helps cool our body during hot weather.
Jackfruit is popularly known in my locality as fig fruit, although it's not as common as some other fruits like mangoes and oranges in many parts of Nigeria it's gradually becoming more appreciated Some common jackfruit products include:
- Fresh jackfruit
- Sweetner for juices like (zobo, watermelon and tigernuts drinks)
- Jackfruit smoothie
- Jackfruit milkshake
- Jackfruit jam
- Jackfruit juice
- Dried jackfruit chips
- Jackfruit ice cream
- Jackfruit fruit salad
These products are nutritious and can be enjoyed as healthy drinks, snacks or refreshing desserts.
For this challenge, I prepared Jackfruit milkshake the ingredients I used include:
- Ripe Jackfruit
- Milk & Sugar
- Peanuts for toppings
| Ingredient | Price (₦) | Approx. STEEM |
|---|---|---|
| Ripe jackfruit | ₦1,500 | 24 STEEM |
| Hollandia milk | ₦1000 | 16 STEEM |
| Sugar | ₦200 | 3 STEEM |
| Peanut | ₦1200 | 19 STEEM |
Total: 3900 (Approximately 63 Steem)
Step 1: I washed the fruit thoroughly, carefully open it, remove the edible part which is the yellow fruit bulb, and then remove the seeds.
Step 2: I transfer the jackfruit bulbs into the blender, next I added milk and a little quantity of sugar to enhance sweetness, this fruit is naturally sweet, that's why only a little sugar was needed.
Step 3: I added chilled before blending everything into smooth creamy mixture, this makes the drink extra refreshing.
Step 4: After blending I poured the milkshake into clean glasses and topped it with peanuts to give me that crunchy texture and enticing appearance.
Step 5: I chilled it a bit before serving, and the result was a cool, creamy and refreshing drink, with a rich tropical flavor!
Preparing this Jackfruit milkshake was both enjoyable and rewarding. The flavor of the ripe jackfruit blended so well with the creamy milk, thus creating a naturally sweet and satisfying beverage. The milkshake was so refreshing, filling and ideal for cooling our bodies on a sunny day. Besides it's delicious taste it's good for vitamins, calcium, fiber and antioxidants that supports good health and strengthen our immunity.
I will highly recommend this drink to anyone who's looking for a simple, nutritious and homemade refreshment during the hot season. kids too really love this milkshake because it's naturally sweet. Make it for them!

Te deseo mucho éxito en la dinámica... Un fuerte abrazo💚
