This easy, 3-ingredient recipe combines luscious Medjool dates, freshly squeezed orange juice, and cold filtered water to create a smooth and creamy beverage thatβs packed with nutrients and energy. Ready in just 5 minutes, this hydrating drink is ideal for a post-workout boost, a midday pick-me-up, or a refreshing treat on a hot day.

1. Begin by opening the Medjool dates and removing the pits, if not already pitted.
2. In a high-speed blender, combine the pitted dates, freshly squeezed orange juice, and cold filtered water.
3. Blend on high for 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy. There should be no visible chunks of dates.
4. If desired, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer or nut milk bag for an ultra-smooth texture (optional).
5. Pour the Dateorade into glasses and serve immediately. For an extra refreshing twist, add ice cubes or chill the drink for 15 minutes before serving.
