Add the soaked cashews, peeled almonds, and dates into a blender.
Blend the dry fruits with a small amount of milk until they form a smooth paste.
Add the Milk and Sweetener:
Pour the remaining chilled milk into the blender.
Add honey or sugar as per your taste to sweeten the milkshake.
Add Flavoring:
Add cardamom powder and saffron strands for a touch of flavor and richness.
Blend Everything:
Blend the mixture until it becomes smooth and creamy.
Add Ice Cubes (Optional):
If desired, add a few ice cubes to the blender and blend again for a more refreshing and chilled shake.
Serve and Garnish:
Pour the kaju badam milkshake into glasses.
Garnish with finely chopped cashews, almonds, and a few saffron strands or a sprinkle of cardamom powder.
Tips:
You can replace dates with raisins or figs for a variation in sweetness.
Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra richness if desired.
