  2. Place cooked beans, dates, and water into the Vitamix container in the order listed and secure the lid.

Chef's Notes

To obtain commercial-style soy milk, strain the milk through a filtration bag or pass through a fine mesh sieve. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. For a refreshing flavor, add 1-inch (2.5 cm) cube of fresh ginger root before blending.
