Made with only 2 ingredients, dates and water. Date syrup has a rich, caramel-like flavour and a thick, syrupy texture which can enhance the taste and texture of foods and beverages. A perfect sugar substitute with health benefits!

No funky additives or weird chemicals, just pure unadulterated sweetness straight from the dates. Dates contain vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, providing nutritional benefits compared to refined sugars. 

Medjool dates are the best for making this syrup as they are tender, sweet, and rich in flavour.

Store the syrup in a mason jar/airtight container in the refrigerator – best consumed within 1 week.

Recommended making in small batches to retain freshness.
