This simple and delightful recipe combines the creamy texture of whisked milk with the natural sweetness of raisins for a treat perfect to share!
Ingredients:
- 2 cups of milk (whole or plant-based, like almond or oat milk)
- 1/4 cup raisins
- 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional for extra sweetness)
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- A pinch of cinnamon (optional)
- A handful of crushed nuts (almonds, walnuts, or pistachios) for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Raisins:
- Soak the raisins in a small bowl of warm water for about 10 minutes. This will plump them up and soften their texture. Drain them afterward.
- Heat the Milk:
- In a medium saucepan, pour the milk and heat it over medium heat until it begins to steam. Stir occasionally to prevent it from scalding.
- Whisk the Milk:
- Once the milk is hot but not boiling, reduce the heat and use a whisk or hand blender to froth it. Continue whisking for about 1-2 minutes until it becomes light and airy.
- Add Flavors:
- Stir in the vanilla extract and honey (if using), and whisk gently to combine the flavors. Add a pinch of cinnamon for a warm, spiced twist.
- Incorporate the Raisins:
- Remove the milk from the heat and stir in the soaked raisins. Let them sit in the warm milk for a minute to infuse their sweetness.
- Serve:
- Pour the whisked milk into serving glasses. If desired, garnish with a handful of crushed nuts for added texture and a crunchy contrast.
- Enjoy:
- Serve warm, and enjoy this creamy and sweet treat with your friends!
Tips:
- You can experiment with different flavors by adding a bit of cardamom or nutmeg.
- For a chilled version, allow the milk to cool after whisking and serve over ice!
This treat is not only delicious but can be a comforting drink to share, especially in cozy gatherings.
