What each ingredient does

Malted milk
Provides the characteristic malty flavor and sweetness of the drink.
Warm milk
Supplies most of the liquid and a creamy body.

The step that matters

Mix the malted milk with the lukewarm water until smooth. Malted milk powder clumps when a large amount of liquid is poured in at once. Making a smooth paste first lets the powder disperse evenly, so the warm liquid can then be added gradually without lumps.
