Even with kale my husband likes it!
The dates, kale and mint are the most important part of the taste in this recipe. The milk and fruits in the original recipe are very good but I've also tried others with equally good results.

I made a mistake, but it was still delicious
I misread the recipe to say 2 Cups of Kale and 1 Kiwi - instead of 1 cup of kale and 2 kiwis. Otherwise I stuck to the recipe. Even with my mess-up it was absolutely delicious. The flavor of the dates and the mint both come through, and have a really positive punch. I loved it, and so did my husband.
