Peanut punch
Peanut punch is a delicious and creamy beverage made from blending peanuts, milk (or a dairy-free alternative), sweeteners, and sometimes a touch of vanilla or nutmeg for extra flavor. It's popular in Caribbean and West African cuisines and is often enjoyed as a refreshing and nutritious drink.
Ingredients
- 1 cup roasted peanuts (unsalted)
- 2 cups milk (or dairy-free alternative like almond or oat milk)
- 3 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch ground nutmeg or cinnamon (optional)
- Ice cubes optional
Instructions
- Start by grinding the roasted peanuts until they're finely crushed. You can use a blender or a food processor for this step.
- Transfer the crushed peanuts into a bowl and gradually add milk while stirring. This will help create a smooth and creamy consistency.
- Add sweetened condensed milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of ground nutmeg or cinnamon if desired. Stir well until all the ingredients are fully combined.
- Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness by adding more sugar if needed.
- If you prefer a colder drink, you can add a few ice cubes and blend them into the mixture until it reaches the desired temperature.
- Once everything is well mixed, pour the peanut punch into glasses and serve chilled. You can also sprinkle a little nutmeg or cinnamon on top for an extra touch of flavor, if you like.
