Equipment

Blender

Ingredients

3 cups water
½ cup hemp seeds hulled
3 tbsp raw cacao powder cocoa powder works too
4-6 medjool dates pitted, to taste, see notes
pinch of salt

Instructions

If not using a high-speed blender, then I recommend to first soak the dates in boiling water for 5-10 minutes.
In a blender, add the hemp seeds, cacao powder, dates and water. Blend on high until smooth.
Pour in a storing glass container and transfer to the fridge. The milk can be served right away, although better enjoyed cold.

Notes

Keep the milk in a sealed glass container in the fridge for 3-4 days. Shake well before serving.
You can also use maple syrup instead of dates to sweeten the milk, especially if you don't have a high-speed blender.
Other ingredients you can add to your milk include vanilla extract, cinnamon, turmeric or a spoonful of peanut butter.
