  • Nonfat dry milk powder (if necessary)

Use Crushed Ice

First, place 2 cups of crushed ice into your blender and remember that they are breaking down than cubed ice. The perfect crushed ice will give you a creamier consistency. If you do not have crushed ice, use a food processor to crush the ice.

Add Sugar And Vanilla Extract

Before applying the sugar and vanilla extract, you need to measure them perfectly. Take 4 tablespoons of sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. If you do not have a measuring spoon, you can use other ingredients to measure them. You can measure them with your index figure because one teaspoon is about the size of the tip of your index finger. To get a beautiful golden color, and rich taste, you can use a tiny pinch of turmeric powder.
