What each ingredient does

Malted milk
Provides the main malty flavour and sweetness that defines the drink.
Warm milk or water
Supplies the liquid that dilutes the malted base into a drinkable beverage.

The step that matters

Mixing the malted milk into a smooth paste first. Malted milk powder clumps when liquid is added all at once. Blending it with a little lukewarm water first dissolves the powder evenly, so the drink ends up smooth rather than lumpy.
