How to Make Tigernut Ofio Milk Drink


How to Make Tigernut Ofio Milk Drink

x-tigernut-ofio-drink-milk-recipe
In my Lose It Nigerian book, I presented tigernut milk aka ofio (imumu) drink as a diary free alternative to cow milk. I have had so many amazing feedbacks on the recipe and I thought to share it with the bigger 9jafoodie audience.  You will be surprised by how easy it is to make this recipe, it’s pretty much just 3 simple steps. The process of making this is similar to soy milk, you can find that recipe HERE . If you dont live where you can easily source tigernut, feel free to substitute almonds in this recipe. If you use fresh tigernuts, there is no need to pre-soak them.
Dried dates can be used as sugarfree way to sweeten the milk. I have heard “read” that adding date and coconut into tigernut makes it an aphrodisiac, I cannot confirm or deny this claim. If you try the combination for this purpose and it happens to be true, please let a sister know.
