Carrot and Cardamom is a delicious duo that is popular in Indian desserts like burfi, and carrot shake is a common refresher in Southeast Asia, so why not combine the two! This is a very easy-to-make shake that is full of flavour and is quite satisfying.

For 3 servings

3 large carrots, peeled and chopped

1 cup water

1 cup soy milk (or coconut, or almond or rice)

1 teaspoon ground cardamom

2 tablespoons sugar, (or other sweeteners- to taste)

Add the raw carrots, water, milk, and cardamom to a blender, and blend until the carrots have pulped. Gradually add sugar to taste. You can optionally blend one cup of ice cubes to the drink, making it more like a chilled slush.
