As we celebrate World Milk Day 2025, more people are talking about healthier, eco-friendly, and plant-based milk options. One such option becoming popular is millet milk — a nutritious drink that is dairy-free and good for both your body and the environment.
Chef Vikas Chawla, a well-known chef and expert in healthy cooking, says millet milk is the next big thing in nutrition. He explains that this age-old grain is making a strong comeback, especially for people who are lactose-intolerant or following a vegan lifestyle.
Making millet milk is simple — soak millets, blend them with water, and then strain the liquid. Chef Chawla recommends using finger millet (also called ragi) to make milk because it is rich in calcium, iron, fiber, and antioxidants. Drinking ragi milk can help keep your bones strong, give you energy, and improve digestion.
One of the best things about millet milk is its low glycemic index, which helps control blood sugar levels. It’s also gluten-free, so it's safe for people who are sensitive to gluten.
Chef Chawla suggests using millet milk every day — in smoothies, tea or coffee, porridge, or even baking. It’s a smart and delicious alternative to regular dairy or nut milk.
This World Milk Day, millet milk isn’t just a trend — it’s a healthy, thoughtful choice that’s good for you and the planet.
