I welcome you all to another edition of Hivelearners Creative Sunday today I will be showing us how I love to prepare tiger nut drinks at home. Tiger nut drink has always been one of my favorite drinks. Anytime I take it, I just feel good. It’s sweet and creamy, and you don’t even need sugar or any sweetener at all.
INGREDIENTS USED
2-3 cups of Tiger nuts
2 cups of Dates and
1 medium Coconut.
Benefits Of These Three IngredientS
Tiger Nuts:- Apart from the sweet taste, I heard tiger nuts help with digestion. Truth be told since I started drinking it often, my stomach feels better. It also gives energy, which is great if you’re always tired like me after work.
Dates:- Dates are my natural sugar. They’re sweet but also healthy. I also heard they’re good for blood and the brain. For me, I just like that they give the drink a soft, sweet flavor without being harsh.
Coconut:- Coconut is what gives the drink that creamy, rich feel. Anytime I forget to add coconut, the drink doesn’t taste the same. Plus, it’s good for skin and hair.
💓STEP 1**
Soaking The Tiger Nuts
Since I am using dried and fresh tiger nuts, I soak them overnight in a bowl of water. I just cover the bowl and leave it on my kitchen counter. By morning, they are soft and ready to use. If you’re using the fresh ones, you can skip this soaking part, just wash them well.
💓STEP 2
Washing The Dates And Removing The Seeds
Also, I soaked the dates overnight as well, this helps soften and be able to remove the seeds easily, I rinse the dates very well because sometimes dust or sand gets inside the pack. Then I remove the seeds one by one. Dates are what I use instead of sugar, so I make sure I pick good ones.
💓STEP 3**
Breaking And Cutting The Coconut
I always use a small hammer to break my coconut. After that, I remove the shell and rinse the white part. I usually cut it into small chunks so my blender doesn’t struggle. The coconut makes the drink creamy, and I love that.
💓STEP 4
Blending Everything
I pour the soaked tiger nuts, dates, and coconut into my blender. Then I add just enough clean water not too much because I like the drink thick and rich. I blend it till everything is properly smooth. Sometimes I stop and shake the blender a bit before continuing, just to make sure it blends well.
💓STEP 5
Sieving The Mixture
I use a clean chiffon cloth to sieve. I pour the blended mixture into the cloth and squeeze gently. I take my time with this part because I like to get as much milk out as possible. I usually sieve it more than three times, just to make sure there’s no chaff left in the drink.
💕STEP 6
Bottling And Chilling
Once I’m done sieving, I pour the drink into a clean bottle and put it in the fridge. After a few hours, it’s cold and ready to enjoy.
