How To Add More Flavour To Your Milk And Make It Healthier

Filled with a host of nutrients, milk has several health benefits. Right from soothing your stomach to boosting your energy levels, a single glass of milk can do you good.

However, most people don't like the taste of milk. They opt for flavouring powders and syrups to enhance its taste. But before you pick these artificially prepared flavours, try these natural add-ons that will not only make your milk taste better but will also make it healthier.

Chia seeds
Chia seeds are an excellent source of calcium, protein, fibre and a number of antioxidants. Apart from that, they also contain high levels of omega-3 fatty acids that further boost the milk's omega-3 fatty acid levels. What's best is that chia seeds don't need a lot of prep; just scoop up a spoonful and add it to your milk. A glass of cold milk with chia seeds makes for a healthy yet flavoursome drink.

Raw honey
Raw honey not only adds its sweet flavour to the milk, it also boosts its health quotient. Milk with raw honey is an excellent remedy to help soothe an upset stomach and improve digestion too. You can even drink this concoction to relieve a cough or cold.

Raw cocoa powder
Made out of raw cocoa beans, raw cocoa powder is the raw form of chocolate. It is rich in B-complex vitamins, vitamin E, calcium, iron, potassium, copper and zinc. Apart from that, raw cocoa also contains flavonoid antioxidants and healthy fats. This can further help boost your energy levels.
