Put the contents of your shake in a big cereal bowl. Add 2 tsp husks and mix together. Then
Either add cold water gradually to make a smooth paste then more water and microwave for a couple of mins stirring every 30 secs until thickened OR
add water just off the boil and stir until thickened.
Try experimenting until its the consistency you like. I have it everyday - love it.
