Goldie Tehina Shakes
Turkish Coffee Syrup
Directions
Combine the Soom Tahini, sugar, kosher salt, and plain unsweetened almond milk in a blender. Process until smooth. Pour the mixture into ice cube trays (you’ll need three standard-size trays) and freeze overnight.
The next day, pop the tahini ice cubes out of the trays into the blender. Pour in a little more almond milk to get the blender started and blend just until the ice cubes are completely broken down and the mixture thickens.
Add your favorite flavored syrup or Turkish Coffee Syrup (recipe below) and blend for a few more seconds. Taste and add a bit more syrup if you like.
Pour the milkshake into glasses and serve immediately, with optional toppings like chopped chocolate with fresh mint.
Turkish Coffee Syrup
Combine the water, Turkish coffee, regular ground coffee, sugar, ground cardamom, and kosher salt in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat.
Bring to a boil, remove the pan from the heat, and let steep for 30 minutes.
Place a coffee filter inside a fine-mesh sleeve and set it over a jar. Strain the syrup into the jar.
The syrup will keep, refrigerated, for up to 1 month.

Hi Tanya, we’re so glad to hear you enjoyed your Tehina Shake! A pistachio flavor sounds super delicious. Here’s a couple ideas for how you could experiment – Use pistachio milk (store-bought or homemade) instead of almond milk. Instead of adding a syrup use pistachio butter or extract. Or use a couple scoops of pistachio ice cream when you make the tahini/milk ice cubes. (you can cut the additional sugar out here too!) Let us know if you try any of these ideas out!
