Can you make alcohol out of dates?

Question

Can you make alcohol out of dates?

Answer 1

As long as you have the right ingredients, you can make alcohol out of any fruit or vegetable.

My son and my dad made some wine out of squash one time, believe it or not, it was very good, although it was a bit too much of a dry wine. I like the ones with a low alcohol content and very very sweet. Okay, you got me, I'd be just as happy with just the juice, never mind the alcohol.

Answer 2

Probably... but I know that with some alcohol, I could make a date!

Answer 3

Only if the person drinks a lot and you squeeze them really hard.

In India, North Africa, Ghana, and Côte d'Ivoire, date palms are tapped for the sweet sap which is converted into palm sugar (known as jaggery or gur), molasses or alcoholic beverages. In North Africa the sap obtained from tapping palm trees is known as lāgbī (pronounced [laːgbiː]). If left for a sufficient period of time (typically hours-depending on the temperature) lāgbī easily becomes an alcoholic drink. Special skill is required when tapping the palm tree so that it does not die.
