- 3 cups of filtered water
- 2 Medjool dates pitted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract or powder
- 1 tsp coconut oil
- Pinch of sea salt
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For optional add-ins, try one of these:

- 1 tbsp of maca to support hormones
- 1/2 cup berries for an antioxidant-rich milk
- 1 tsp turmeric for an anti-inflammatory milk
- 1 tsp matcha for an energy-boosting milk
- 1 tsp reishi for an immunity milk
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Directions
- Add all ingredients, plus any additional add-ins to a high-speed blender and blend until creamy and smooth.⠀
