Cyprus - Choco Mingle Drink

When my husband and I were working in Cyprus, we discovered a little café in Larnaca called Mingle. Their food was delicious, healthy, and fresh. This is our replication of their Choco Drink. 

 

1 tsp salt

3 cups milk of choice

4 Medjool dates

2 bananas

4 T cocoa powder

1-1/2 tsp carob syrup

1/3 cup unsalted almond or peanut butter

 

Place all ingredients in blender and blend until smooth. 

 

Note: When I use the Almond Milk recipe from our cookbook Cooking with Wisdom to make this drink, I only use two dates for the Choco Drink because the almond milk already has dates in it. 

 

Makes 2  2-cup servings
