Sattu, Dates Masala Milk With Turmeric

Sattu, dates masala milk with turmeric has become my son’s favorite this winter. He likes to have it as an afterschool drink before his music or sports class. I make and pack it hot when I go to school to pick him up. He has some time for a quick snack before the lesson begins. He likes drinking it warm in cold weather after school. I am happy as this energy drink has sattu, dates, powdered nuts and turmeric. This gives him energy before his sports or music. Sattu is considered very healthy and is a good source of protein, calcium, magnesium, iron, and fiber. Dates are a good source of various vitamins and minerals. It’s also a good source of energy, sugar, and fiber. Essential minerals such as calcium, iron, phosphorous, sodium, potassium, magnesium, and zinc can be found in them. It is naturally sweet and hence adding sugar to the milk is not required. Turmeric, the golden spice, is good to be consumed in cold weathers. It helps in building immunity and in fighting against cough and cold. This drink is also preservative free and does not have any artificial sugar in it, unlike the commercially available drinks. The milk takes only a few minutes to make. I usually ground the sattu and nuts powder and refrigerate the mixture. I then just have to boil it in the milk and thus the masala milk can be prepared quickly. The sugarfree drink is diabetic friendly. Sattu is low in glycemic index and hence is beneficial for a person having diabetes. Since it is good for the development of muscle mass in the body, it is very good for growing children.
