Afternoon Date Shake

An absolute favorite afternoon pick-me-up. And so easy to make! I always have dates in the refrigerator to serve to guests instead of nuts.  Perhaps a small bowl of dates, small bowl of unsulphered dried apricots with some roasted chickpeas.

What you need:
3/4 cup of whole milk (I like Mill-King Creamery)
1/2 cup ice
1/3 cup of pitted dates (bagged Whole Foods, I avoid bulk due to fear of cross-contamination with scoop or "that" hand that reaches in bins to "try")

What to do:
Place ingredients in Thermomix bowl and blend on speed nine until frothy.
