Summer beckons some cool refreshing drinks. Lying in a hammock, sipping a cool drink and reading a nice novel is a nice way to spend a summer afternoon. Enjoy this fulfilling energy drink.
Strawberries are tart in taste and the addition of banana assuages that to a large extent and adds volume too. Dates lend sweetness and milk helps in pureeing the mixture. The health benefits of banana, dates and strawberry need really no emphasis.
Preparation (Makes 3-4 cups)
1. One medium size banana
2. 1 cup strawberries
3. 1/2 cup dates
4. 1/2 cup cold milk (boil it and cool it if needed)
4. Almond flakes
In a blender take the strawberries, banana, dates, milk and puree it. Add water and ice cubes. While serving in glasses garnish it with almond flakes. Enjoy !
As a variation one scoop of vanilla ice-cream could be added and pureed along with others.

Yum - I am going to try this one - never thought of adding dates before! We usually use yogurt instead of milk and also use some soy powder.
