Combo Almond + Makhana

How much do I save by buying this combo vs the individual almond and makhana packs?

You save approximately 23% compared to purchasing 200g California almonds and 150g makhana separately at their individual prices. The combo is priced at ₹699 vs ₹909 if bought individually. You also save on shipping since both items ship in one package.

Why are almonds and makhana paired together instead of other dry fruits?

Almonds and makhana are nutritional opposites that complete each other. Almonds are high-fat (50g per 100g), high-protein, and calorie-dense — great in small portions for sustained energy. Makhana is ultra-low-fat (under 0.1g per 100g), high-volume, and calcium-rich — great for large-bowl snacking without calorie guilt. No other dry fruit pairing gives you this complementary macro split. Almond + cashew, for example, doubles up on fats without adding the low-calorie volume element.

Can I use both items together in a single recipe or smoothie?

Yes — this is a combo-exclusive hack many customers love. Crush 3-4 dry-roasted makhana puffs and blend them into your morning almond milk or almond smoothie. The makhana adds 160mg calcium per 100g and a unique cereal-like crunch texture that you won't get from almonds alone. You can also make a makhana-almond ladoo by grinding roasted makhana with soaked almonds, dates, and cardamom.

What is the recommended daily routine for using this combo?

Morning: soak 7-8 almonds overnight, peel and eat on an empty stomach with a glass of water. This gives you sustained protein, Vitamin E, and brain-boosting fats for the first half of the day. Evening (4-6 PM): dry-roast a handful of makhana in 1 tsp ghee with rock salt and black pepper for 4-5 minutes — this 91-calorie snack replaces chips and namkeen. Following this routine, one combo pack lasts approximately 15-18 days.

How long does one combo pack last, and how should I store each item?

At the recommended daily intake (8 almonds + 1 handful makhana), one pack lasts 15-18 days. Each item comes in a separate nitrogen-flushed resealable pouch — never transfer them into the same jar, because makhana absorbs moisture from almonds and turns rubbery. Almonds: airtight jar, cool dry place, 4-6 months. Makhana: airtight container, strictly away from moisture, consume within 3 months.
