Ingredients

  • 2 cups dried or fresh tiger nuts (aduwa)
  • 1 small piece fresh ginger (optional)
  • 5–7 dates (dabino), pitted (optional, for extra sweetness)
  • Water, as needed

Method

  1. If using dried tiger nuts, soak them in water overnight to soften, then drain and rinse them.
  2. In a blender, combine the tiger nuts, ginger, and dates. Blend until smooth and creamy, adding water as needed to aid blending.
  3. Strain the blended mixture using a fine sieve or cheesecloth to separate the milk from the chaff.
  4. Chill in the refrigerator and serve cold.
