Tips

You can use plant-based creamy milk like almond, or coconut drinking milk. I like using oat milk because it gives a thick and creamy flavor.
if you find this ingredient too strong, add half a teaspoon of turmeric.
Use either fresh or store-bought powder spices at your convenience. But the taste of both spices will be different.
An electric mixer is used for a creamy texture otherwise it’s not necessary. You can skip the process.
Turmeric gives a strong flavor. Use wisely.
