Fruits are very good for our health as it contains fibers, vitamins, minerals and anti- oxidants. Also it protects you from diseases, aging and increases your immunity. I always eat one fruit daily to maintain a good health and to get away from the diseases. Coming to this recipe, this is a creamy and delicious milk shake.
