Ingredients

• 1 cup plain almond milk
• 4 Dilmah Exceptional Italian Almond teabags
• ½ cup fresh pitted Madjool dates
• 3 tbsp chia seeds (black or white)
• 1 ½ tbsp good quality dark cocoa powder
• Seeds scraped from open vanilla bean
• Fresh berries and/ or toasted almond slices to serve

Instructions

1. Heat milk in a pot on the stove with the tea and dates until the tea infuses to your liking. Be careful to no boil or burn it. Take out the tea bags and cool the mixture.
2. In a blender, add infused milk, dates, chia seeds, cocoa, salt, and vanilla. Blend for a minute or more, until it's smooth.
3. Taste and if you like it sweeter, add another few dates. If you like a thinner pudding, add another drop of milk and blend again.
4. Transfer mixture into little glasses. Refrigerate until chilled.
5. Top with fresh berries and a few toasted almonds to garnish.
