Plant-based beverage fans, rejoice: This drink, crammed with cashews, is a winner. Dates and dried apricots double as flavour boosters and natural sweeteners, with no additional sugar necessary. Served hot, it could replace your first coffee of the day, and as a cold pick-me-up it makes a nice snack. It also works well in your cereal bowl!
