No Ice Cream Required: The chikoo fruit itself makes thick milkshake just like mangoes, so I have not added any ice cream here. Trust me, it tastes good without ice cream.

Ingredient Notes

Chikoo:

It is called sapota or sapodilla in English. Or spelled as chikku or chickoo.
In India, chikoo are usually available from May to July. Sometimes they are available during the winter months (January & February) too. But in the wintertime, mom never makes chilled milkshakes. So we ate the fruit as such.
Here in the USA, you’ll find the fresh chikoo (good ones) occasionally. But you can get the frozen packets all year around.
Sometimes, the chikoos we buy are hard as a rock. Let them ripen on the countertop. Once they get soft and juicy, after use for making a milkshake. The best ripe fruits have a soft, melt-in-your-mouth granular texture.

Milk: Full-fat whole milk is recommended for creamy texture as this is made without ice cream. However, you can use low-fat or fat-free milk.

Sugar: A little amount of sugar is required.
