![]() See below for more details on how to soak cashews if you've never done it before. Step 1: In a medium-sized bowl, add the raw cashews. To get started, you'll need the following ingredients: The consistency of the milk is creamy and somewhat similar to whole milk, however, it depends on how much water you add and how well your blender processes the mixture. It tastes great in coffee, turmeric lattes and matcha lattes (including the iced version)! Over the past few years, I've used cashew milk in just about everything, including my morning green smoothie, overnight oats, chia pudding, in my soups, and baked goods, like my edible cookie dough or almond flour chocolate chip cookies. However, almond milk is just a start! Another delicious dairy-free option to consider is cashew milk. For this reason, you can find almond milk, for example, in almost any grocery store. With an increasing number of individuals cutting down or altogether eliminating dairy from their diets, dairy-free nut milk options have become increasingly popular these days. Use it in smoothies, dressings, pancakes, baked goods, soups, and lattes. Don’t worry) and let’s get our slurrrrp on.Cashew milk is one of the easiest and creamiest dairy-free nut milks to make in your kitchen, requiring only 3 ingredients and a blender! It has a rich, velvety, creamy texture and tastes delicious. So, get on your feel-good-pants (they’re not real pants. We all know happy food (or drink) is good food. Who knew you could blend so many happy memories into a cup? A-L-S-O, the sequel, the blender gives this milk an AMAZING, addictive frothy quality which is VRY VRY reminiscient of the fast-food beverage that we all drank while roaming the malls as a teenager. I ask you this: who doesn’t want to drink (4 ingredient! Paleo, vegan AND whole30 compliant!) dessert?Ī-L-S-O, like last years banana vanilla orange smoothie, it tastes like an Orange Julius in the sense that it’s perfectly sweet with notes of creamy vanilla and tangy, bright orange. But, I might question your life choices on that. You could even leave out the dates if you want a “less dessert-like” drink. But in a slurp-able, drink-able, MEGA creamy form, that has none of that refined sugar (hi naturally sweet dates!) or dairy shenanigans going on. This creamsicle nut milk, my internet peeps, tastes LIKE THAT. <– I did not actually frolic in fields, just trying to paint a picture for you. Plus, it’s the SUMMER (almost) and summer always reminds me of my young-years frolicking in the fields eating creamsicles. BUT, remember my strawberry milk? Adding flavor is so much better! SRSLY, if you haven’t tried making your own nut milk, you need to put it on your bucket list and then CROSS IT OFF this VERY weekend.Īre you one of those people that always has “BIG PLANS” for what you’re going to get done on the weekend…but then, 4 hours later, you find Netflix asking (read: judging) you if “you’re still watching Drop Dead Diva?” PLUSPLUSPLUS, it’s about FORTY TWO THOUSAND (just a guess) times creamier and has no weird thickeners or oils like some of the brands you’ll find on the counters. It takes less time than putting on real pants (who wants to do that?) and going to the store to buy it. Step two is just as easy-peasy: strain it through a nut milk bag (ain’t nobody want little pieces of nuts caught in their teeth after slurping down a creamy cup of cashew milk) and – POOF – like some ultra-trendy kitchen goddess, Y-O-U have just made your VERY OWN nut milk. It’s REALLY as easy as putting nuts + water in a high-powered blender, pressing “on” and watching as the POWERFUL blades crush up those crunchy nuts and mix them with water like it’s THEIR JOB. Spoiler alert: there is NO actual milking of nuts involved. Obviously milking a nut would abooooout eleventy billion times MORE HARD. I mean, HOW DO YOU MILK A NUT? I’ve milked a cow before and that is TOUGH STUFF. Have you ever made your own nut milk? I was always “afraid” to because I thought it had to be, liiike, SO HARD. HOMEMADE cashew milk, where have you been all my liiiiife! ❤ ❤ ❤ This quick and easy, creamy cashew milk recipe tastes like a creamsicle! It’s a paleo, vegan and whole30 compliant drink that tastes better than store bought! ![]()
