This pseudo-cereal with Peruvian origins is becoming increasingly popular. The plant-based quinoa drink is not yet so well known, but gradually more and more companies are starting to market it. Quinoa is a high-protein food and very popular with athletes because it contains slowly absorbed carbohydrates that keep energy and blood sugar levels constant.

Notes
SWEETENER. If you want to make the drink sweeter, you can add the following ingredients to the blender along with the recipe ingredients, depending on your preference: Agave syrup, honey, panela, date paste, 3 pitted dates to taste, ½ vanilla bean or ½ teaspoon vanilla powder.
* Dates should be halved and pitted before adding to the mixing chamber. We recommend Medjool dates.
For the date paste you need: 200 g pitted dates and 300 g water. Leave the pitted dates in hot water for 20 minutes. Strain and keep the water. Chop the dates into small pieces. Put the chopped dates and 100 ml water in the blender and puree. Gradually add water until the desired consistency is reached.
