Betterlife - The Diary Game | Date: 24-Dec-2025 | The moment of drinking traditional date juice in Bangladesh.

I woke up in the winter morning and went to the mosque to pray Fajr. Then my friend and I planned to blog about the traditional date juice drinking in Bangladesh after the prayer today.

Since date juice is taken from the tree very early in the morning, we went out in search of date juice. Drinking date juice in the winter morning can be said to be one of the traditional adventures in Bangladesh.

There is an area north of our area, we went there on a foggy morning on a bike. When we went to a certain place, I saw a boy taking a pitcher of date juice from a date tree. The date palm tree was very big, so the pitcher to hold the date palm juice had to be kept very high.

The pitcher was filled with juice water all night and then the pitcher was lowered in the morning. Basically, the question of the date palm tree is that the boy who is there is very good because they were very happy to see us.

After a while, the date palm pitcher was lowered from the date palm tree. However, I helped him lower the pitcher. When the pitcher of date palm juice is lowered from the tree, the traditional scenes will fill your heart.

Such scenes and such culture exist only in Bangladesh. I brought the date palm juice pot in my hand to a house and in that house, all the pitchers were lowered one by one. I took a picture with the pitcher in my hand.

There is a tradition of drinking date juice in the winter mornings in Bangladesh. I have heard stories of some boys and girls going 50 to 100 kilometers away from their homes to drink date juice. Dates are usually available in the mornings in winter, so many travelers go to different places to drink this juice in the morning.

Since this area is near our village, it took us at most half an hour to reach here. That moment was special when I took a picture with the date juice in my hand. Then I took a picture of the date juice in a glass and made a video, the link of which is given below.

Anyway, this was the most adventurous trip of the year for us, which we will never forget. So there we ate a lot of date juice and some friends bought some date juice to take home. After that, we came home, took a bath, freshened up, went to the mosque, prayed, then came home, had lunch and spent some time on this platform.

If I had a lot of studying all day today, I couldn't go anywhere, but I went a little easier to do something. In the afternoon, I saw a boy selling shoes on the side of the road.

There were shoes of different brands and sizes there which are popular as winter and summer shoes. So after spending some time there, I came to our mosque in the evening and prayed.

Then I came home and completed some work and prayed in the mosque for the last time at night. Then I came home and it was cold so I had a small dinner and went to bed. Today is a very wonderful day, especially the moment of traveling to eat date juice in the morning.
