PS. Don’t forget to also view our three favourite date recipes to help break fast… you can view them HERE!
Keep Hydrated During Ramadan with these Three Drinks!
Apricot Juice or Amar Al Din
Apricot juice is a very popular beverage of choice during Ramadan! Not only does this particular beverage have wonderful, refreshing and vibrant flavours, it’s infamous for their wonderful health benefits as well. Ceres 100% Apricot Juice Blend contains 100% of your daily Vitamin C and contains no added sugars or preservatives!
If you’re looking to make your very own Amar Al Din (apricot drink), then it couldn’t be easier! All you need? Two ingredients! 1 Package of Dried Apricots and water!
Here’s what you need to do:
- Cut up apricots (be sure all pits are removed) into small pieces
- Feed the apricot pieces into a juicer
- Follow the instructions as per your individual juicer
Oat & Date Milkshake
Date milk is another traditional beverage to drink during Ramadan, but we want to put a twist on this classic with oat and date milkshakes! It’s no surprise why dates are used to break fast during Ramadan! Dates are very nutrient dense, and are high in fibre, protein, natural sugars, vitamins and many minerals which provide an excellent source of energy. Additionally, oats are an incredibly filling food source and are also high in fibre making them another wonderful food to eat after fast during Ramadan!
