In the Instagram reel by @soyanitasan, we see a woman cutting off marigold flowers from stems. She places them in a container and then pours hot water over them. After some time, she washes them separately and plucks off the petals of the flowers. She transfers the petals to a blender and combines them with water and milk. She strains this mixture into another container. Next, she adds sugar, some kind of grounded spice (could be cinnamon or nutmeg), vanilla essence and heavy cream to it. She whisks the mixture and then places it in an ice cream maker to churn. Once ready, she transfers the homemade dessert into individual boxes to be stored. Watch the complete reel here:
