See Bourbon Milkshake recipe. Kids’ all-time favourite bourbon biscuits are blended with chilled milk and ice-cream to make a lip-smacking Bourbon Milkshake, which can be sent to school in a thermos flask to enjoy during one of the breaks. This delicious treat does not require any additional sugar to be added because both the biscuits and the ice-cream bring in their share of sweetness. Also pack some Cucumber Cheese Sandwich in another tiffin for a perfect short break combo.
Is Bourbon Milkshake healthy?
No, this is not healthy. Let's see why.
Yes, this is healthy. But restrictions apply to some.
Let's understand the Ingredients.
What's good.
1. Milk and Low Fat Milk : 1 cup of milk provides 70% of the Recommended Daily Allowance of Calcium. Milk promotes strong bones. The Calcium in Milk helps to protect your teeth against gum disease and keeps your jaw bone strong and healthy. Milk is low in carbs and therefore does not raise blood glucose levels. However diabetics must consider including low fat milk as advised by their dietitian only so as to avoid any fluctuations in blood sugar levels. Protein is another key nutrient which milk is rich in - 8.6 g from a cup. So all those looking to build protein stores can add milk and its products like curd and paneer to their diet. One cup of Milk gives 10 grams of carbs. Low fat milk has lower fat and the same benefits of milk.
