There is nothing better for losing weight than drinking low-calorie cocktails that also provide us with important nutrients. We usually choose the classic combination of our favorite fruit with natural yogurt or milk. This time we present a recipe for an even better drink. It will take you back to the times of the Polish People’s Republic, reminding you of sweet, melt-in-your-mouth halva, but in a healthier, dietary version.
The flavored cocktail is an ideal snack or dessert for people who want to lose weight. It will take a few minutes to prepare.
What ingredients do we need to make a halva cocktail? Here is the list:
- 1 banana;
- 4 dates;
- 250 ml of plant milk;
- 30 g pasty tahini;
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla;
- optional: a pinch of cinnamon or a few sesame seeds.
First, we prepare the ingredients: peel the banana and cut it into smaller pieces. We also cut the dates into small pieces to make them easier to blend.
In the next step put all the ingredients into the blender and mix them for about 2 minutes until a mass with a smooth and uniform consistency is obtained.
Pour the prepared drink into tall glasses. We also recommend sprinkling it with cinnamon or sesame seeds.

It is also worth mentioning that dates also have antioxidants and minerals, such as potassium and magnesium, supporting metabolism and proper functioning of the nervous system.
Banana is a fruit that it fits perfectly into cocktails because it gives them a creamy consistency and delicate sweetness. Contains potassium, which helps regulate blood pressure and supports the body’s electrolyte balance. In turn, plant milk is easily digestible and ideal for people who are lactose intolerant.
Cinnamon, which is worth sprinkling this dessert with, not only gives a pleasant aroma, but also… supports fat burning and stabilizes blood sugar levels. It is a natural ally in the fight against excess weight.
As mentioned, the topping can also be sesame seeds, which are a source of calcium, iron and healthy fats. They support metabolism and also add some crunch to the halva cocktail.
