Before I jump into the chikoo milkshake recipe, let’s set the stage. It is the chikoo season here and hubby picked up a bag of chikoos from the market. While I am not a great fan of this fruit but my husband loves them. To polish off the lot, I tried different recipes with the chikoo fruit like puree, milkshake, porridge.
Summer is here, if your kids want a cold drink and then definitely you can try this chikoo milkshake or sapota milkshake.
