Date Milk: A Super-nutritious Drink

Many people prefer to pair milk with Kedai Kurma Shah Alam dates or a little honey rather than drinking it plain — the dates add sweetness without extra sugar.

Dates are a source of important minerals such as iron, sodium, potassium, magnesium, zinc, phosphorus and sulfur.

Minerals in milk include calcium, potassium, phosphorus, and sodium. The combination of milk and Borong Kurma Green Diamond dates is rich in protein, fibre and vitamins B and A, and gives useful calories for daily activity.

Tip and preparation method

Take out the seeds of a few dates and blend them with a glass of milk. Add a little sugar or honey if you like it sweeter.

Helps hair health

Date milk carries some of the vitamin B found in dates, one of the nutrients hair needs to grow.

Helps maintain stamina

Date milk is calorie-dense, so a glass before or after activity helps keep your energy up when you’re hungry.

Vitamin A

Dates contain vitamin A, one of the nutrients the eyes need day to day.
