Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup black sesame seeds
  • 1 cup full-fat coconut milk (chilled)
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 2 tbsp tahini
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 2 pitted Medjool dates
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup ice cubes

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Toast the black sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until fragrant, stirring constantly. Let cool slightly. Tip: Toasting enhances the nutty flavor but skip if using pre-toasted seeds.
  2. Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend on high for 1-2 minutes until ultra-smooth and creamy. Tip: Add more ice for a thicker shake or more almond milk for a lighter texture.
  3. Taste and adjust sweetness with extra maple syrup if desired. Tip: For café-style presentation, drizzle glasses with extra tahini before pouring.
  4. Pour into chilled glasses and serve immediately with a spoon. Tip: Garnish with a sprinkle of black sesame seeds for texture.
