Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 Cup Water
  • ½ Cup Pitted Dates Any type
Variations
  • You can add any of the following ingredients to change the flavour:
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
Optional: Soak the dates in:
  • Coconut water
  • Orange Juice

Method
 

  1. Pit the dates by making a slit down one side and removing the stone. Add the dates to the water in a bowl. Cover and leave it in the fridge. Leave it at least 24 hours and stir it a few times whenever you remember. The dates dissolve in the water and produce a syrup that can be used to replace any other type of syrup or liquid sweetener.
  2. If you need this date syrup more quickly, you can always blend it, but you may need to increase the quantity and use a high speed blender.
