This spiced drink will warm you from the inside whilst providing a nourishing dose of ground turmeric.
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup soy milk
- ⅔ cup water
- 3-4 small dates, chopped
- 2 rounded teaspoon fresh ginger, finely chopped
- ½ teaspoon ground turmeric
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground cardamom (or two pods)
- A grind of black pepper
Directions
- Heat the soy milk and water in a small pot over medium heat (or in the microwave) until hot but not boiling. Remove from heat.
- Meanwhile, blend the remaining ingredients in a high-speed blender until like a paste.
- Once these ingredients are blitzed together, add the hot liquid into the blender and blend again until frothy.
- Pour and serve!
Chef's Tips
- You can also add the fruit or toppings to the blender at step 2 (or 2 tablespoons cocoa) to create different nice cream flavours such as strawberry, peanut or chocolate.
- This tastes just as good as regular ice cream but is super healthy; I love it!
- Best eaten immediately as sadly it does not freeze well once blended.
- This is delicious served on wholemeal pancakes for breakfast!
