Directions

Click:

  1. Combine the plant milk, beet, dates, and vanilla extract in a high-powered blender until smooth and creamy.
  2. Pour this mixture straight into a saucepan. If your blender isn't very powerful, or if you don't like small fibres to remain in your drink, strain the mixture through a sieve while pouring it into the saucepan.
  3. Place on the stove on medium-high heat and add in a stick of cinnamon. Let the mixture heat up, stirring throughout to prevent burning.
  4. Taste test, and if you like it sweeter add up to 1 Tbsp of maple syrup. Let simmer for about 3 minutes, then remove the cinnamon stick.
  5. To a mug, add a shot of espresso (optional), and then pour over the beetroot-infused milk. Stir, and enjoy!

Notes

  • * Nutrition tip: aim to use plant-based milk that is fortified with calcium.

Storage
