Sapodilla (Chikoo) Almond Shake

Sapodilla or Sapota or Chikoo in Hindi is a very delicious sweet fruit when it is fully ripe. At our place, it is available two times a year. This fruit is high in fiber content. This makes the sapodilla fruit very good for digestion. It also contains important vitamins like A and C.
There are some good reason to consume this fruit like it

• Helps to controls Blood Pressure
• Helps in Digestion.
• Has a high content of tannin, which works as a natural anti-inflammatory.
• Is a source of energy.
• Has so many nutrients which are good for expecting, and even lactating mothers.

Consuming a fruit in its natural form is the best way but sometimes making shakes, juices etc give us a lot of pleasure to consume.
As it is high in fructose so suitable for shakes. Here I prepared vegan Sapodilla shake with almond milk.
