Note:
  • If you are in hurry and forgot to soak dates ,Chop it in to small pieces and blend it along with milk.
  • You can also soak the dates in hot water for quicker blending.
  • If you add cashew or badam while blending, soak the nuts along with dates.
  • For any milkshakes,cakes -dates can act as a natural sweetener,so go ahead and add some dates instead of sugar.
  • I usually boil the milk(even though its pasteurized) and cool it before i make milkshake.If you have pasteurized milk there is no need of boiling the milk.
