Dates – Banana Milk Shake

I had only one fully ripe Banana in my kitchen for more than a day. I remembered this Milk Shake with Dates, I had watched in a TV Show some time back. So made today with a great feeling that I didnt waste it. But unfortunately my son didnt like it though he likes Banana very much and I had to drink everything. J

Ingredients:

Dates 6

Milk 1 ½ cups
Ripe Banana 1

Method:

Boil Milk as usual. Soak Dates in this hot Milk for minimum 1 hour.

Peel the skin of Banana and slice them.

In a Blender/Mixer add Dates along with the Milk and the Banana slices. Blend till done.

Serves: 2

Cucumber Cream Shake

Usually Condensed Milk is added to make coolers like this. I didn’t get it here nearby. So I googled and found out that Condensed Milk can be replaced by Cream. I replaced and christened this as Cream Shake. But I could not find the correct difference between these two or is there any difference really??? If you know, please leave it as a comment.

Ingredients (for one serving):

Cucumber 2

Cream 1 ½ tsp

Sugar 2 tsp or to taste

Water

Preparation:

Peel the skin of Cucumber and roughly chop it.

Method:

Combine chopped Cucumber and Water and blend till smooth. Add Sugar and blend well. Add Cream and again blend.

Serve Chilled.

Serves: 1

Notes:

Adjust Sugar and Cream according to your taste. I peeled the skin so as to feed my little one. This can also be made without peeling the skin.
