You might be wondering how a spice like saffron can provide glowing skin 🤔. Known as “liquid gold,” saffron is packed with antioxidants like crocin, safranal, and carotenoids. Read this article to know more about this spice’s benefits. Combining saffron and milk in a drink is a centuries-old beauty ritual with remarkable benefits for achieving naturally glowing skin. Read on to find why this luxurious combination works wonders for achieving naturally glowing skin 😉.
1. Natural Glow Booster
Saffron is rich in antioxidants that combat oxidative stress, while milk’s vitamins and minerals deeply nourish the skin. Together, they work to enhance skin tone and impart a natural glow, making it a drink that radiates beauty.
2. Boosts Blood Circulation
Saffron is known for improving blood circulation, which helps deliver oxygen and essential nutrients to skin cells. This enhances your natural complexion, giving it a rosy, healthy glow.
3. Skin Brightening Agent
Saffron is renowned for lightening pigmentation and blemishes. Drinking saffron milk regularly can result in a more even and luminous complexion over time.

4. Nutrient-Dense Calories from Milk & Dry Fruits
Milk is rich in healthy fats, protein, and essential vitamins like B12, calcium, and vitamin D. These nutrients are crucial for building muscle mass and overall healthy weight gain. Dry fruits like almonds, cashews, and pistachios are excellent for weight gain as they are calorie-dense and packed with healthy fats, proteins, and essential nutrients that promote muscle growth and overall weight gain 🤩.
5. Reduces Acne and Inflammation
Its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties soothe the skin and reduce breakouts, while milk provides a calming effect. Saffron milk helps cleanse the body of toxins, which reflects positively on the skin, giving it a healthier, clearer appearance.

3. Heat a thick-bottomed pan and add about half a teaspoon of ghee (clarified butter). Lightly roast the crushed nuts for about a minute to enhance their flavor (this step is optional) 🙂.
4. Pour milk into the pan. I used 150 ml/1 cup of milk, but you can adjust the quantity based on your needs.
5. Once the milk starts boiling, add the soaked, fully bloomed saffron strands to it and stir gently.
6. Add cardamom powder and mix well.
7. Let the milk simmer on low heat for about 10 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly and develop a creamy texture.
8. Tadaa! Your golden drink, Saffron milk is ready to serve! You can serve it warm or cold. I prefer drinking warm milk ❤️!

See how simple this milk recipe is? Growing up, I always hated drinking regular cow’s milk as a kid. Ever since I learned this recipe from my friend’s mom (during my university days), my love for milk (aka yummy saffron milk) has grown exponentially ❤️!
Did I tell you that this milk was one of the reasons I gained 10 kgs (with glowing skin as a bonus) right before my marriage? Yes, I was underweight all my life until my marriage! I drank saffron milk every night before going to bed. If you have kids who aren’t fond of milk and are underweight, this recipe is a great choice for them too 😍!
