MANGO SHAKE WITH BASIL SEEDS

Super yummy and kids favourite summer special drink is Mango shake, isn't it? What if we add some more healthy stuffs in this drink? 

So, here I have added Basil / Sabja seeds. The health benefits of basil seeds include the ability to improve digestive health, aid in weight loss, regulating blood sugar, cooling the body, relieving stress, reducing inflammation and preventing certain infections. They are particularly used as an addition to beverages and desserts. The simplest thing you can do is soak two teaspoons of Sabja seeds in water and drink it every day. They can also be added to sherbets, falooda, smoothies or shakes for added benefits.

Ingredients

1. Mango - 2 (of sweet taste)
2. Basil / Sabja seeds - 2 tsp
3. Milk - 1/2 cup
4. Sugar - if required (depends on the taste of the mango)
5. Ice cube - 4-5

Process

1. In a bowl add water and soak Sabja seeds for one hour.

2. In a blender, add chilled milk, mango pieces, ice cubes and sugar. Blend it to desired consistency. 

3. Add the soaked Sabja seeds and mix well. 

4. Pour this mango shake in serving glasses till you have enough space at the top for some more Sabja seeds and mango pieces. I have used few mint leaves for garnishing. Serve the chilled Mango shake immediately. 

Note - Chia seeds and Sabja seeds are not same.
