Amrakhand is nothing but "Aam" + "Shrikhand" where Aam means Mangoes and "Shrikhand" supposedly means "Ambrosia of the Gods".Shrikhand is also the name for a traditional Maharashtrian dessert made from yogurt, nuts and saffron.So this version of Shrikhand which uses Mango as its central taste factor is termed as Amrakhand.In simplest western terminology you can call this "Mango Smoothie".Amrakhand recipe is a delicious Mango Shrikhand recipe that is made from the best of the mangoes available in the summer season.
