What is Sharjah shake?
Sharjah shake is a popular milk shake made with milk, nuts and banana. You can see this milkshake in almost all the Kerala restaurant menus. It is a refreshing summer drink. You will feel belly full after consuming this delicious milkshake.
Preparation of Sharjah shake is quite simple and easy, just concentrate on the proportion of ingredients you use. It should come out in thick consistency and you may doubt at first time, whether this shake is made with semolina or not. Really a delicious shake and we friends were fans of this delicious milkshake during our college days. We used to engulf this sweet, deliciously during hot summer. It can be prepared with or without ice-cream. Today's recipe, is Sharjah ice-cream shake. But you can make the same recipe without ice-cream also.
Tips to Make Perfect Sharjah shake
- Rasakadali, playalamkodan or njalipoovan bananas are commonly used for Sharjah shake. Robesta or Nedran is not suitable for this dish.
- In cool bars, frozen pasteurized milk packets directly used for this shake. But for home use we don't prefer to consume milk directly even though it is pasteurized. You can boil milk, cool down completely and the freeze milk one day before preparation.
- Do not replace Horlicks with any other malt powder. In this recipe, I am sharing the Kerala cool bar style Sharjah Shake recipe. Many websites recommend to use any other brands of malt powder of your choice, but I won't recommend that.
- You can top this shake with ice- cream or boost. Sometimes, boost is also used to garnish the ice cream shake.
