I have created several smoothie recipes and shared them on the blog. But this Pina Colada Makhana Milkshake – Foxnut Smoothie is one of my favorite. Of course I have seen many recipes with foxnut, but I never really thought about adding foxnut and pineapple to a smoothie.
If you haven’t tried foxnuts/makhana in a smoothie, this recipe is the perfect place to start. I have come to realize that foxnuts are a blank canvas and will take on the taste you add to the mix.

What ingredients do I need to make Pina Colada Makhana Milkshake – Foxnut Smoothie?
Roasted foxnuts, Greek Yogurt, coconut milk, frozen pineapple, sugar and dry desiccated coconut to top off.

How do I make this recipe?
First in a pan on low heat dry roast the foxnuts until crisp. Also, make sure not to brown them too much. It should take about 10- 12 minutes. However, monitor them to make sure they don’t burn and stir them in between. Moreover, let them cool and grind them in a grinder.
Second, on low heat in a pan roast the dry desiccated coconut. Spread the coconut around into one even layer. Stir often, until the coconut is lightly browned (about 5 minutes).
Further, place all of the ingredients (ground foxnuts, Greek Yogurt, coconut milk, frozen pineapple and sugar) in a high-powered blender. Finally, blend them.
After blending the smoothie, transfer the smoothie in a cup and top it with some additional foxnuts and roasted desiccated coconut.
