Ingredients
½ cup sweet potato, cooked, tightly packed
1 cup almond milk, (or milk of choice)
3 medjool dates, pitted
½ inch knob of fresh ginger, (or ¼ tsp dried ginger)
¼ tsp ground turmeric
¼ tsp ground cinnamon
1 tbsp hemp hearts, (optional for added protein)
ice, as needed to thicken
Preparation
In a blender, combine the sweet potato, milk, 2 dates, ginger, turmeric, cinnamon, and hemp hearts, if using. Blend until very smooth.
Taste the mixture, then blend in another date if more sweetness is desired. Once smooth, add in a heaping cup of ice cubes and blend until they are totally broken down.
Serve chilled right away.
