Wonderful in smoothies or almost anywhere you would use dairy milk, cashew milk is non-dairy. Soak raw nuts overnight and puree. Don’t buy it when homemade cashew milk is so easy to make. No straining is needed as cashew milk purees into a fine milk.
Place cashews in a container for soaking and cover with cold filtered water. Place in the refrigerator for 8 hours or overnight.
After soaking, pour off soaking water, fill blender with 6 cups fresh cold filtered water, add nuts and puree for 60 seconds. Cashew milk will keep covered and refrigerated for a 3-4 days.
Notes
Be sure to buy raw cashews. You do not want them roasted or salted.Variations:
Add vanilla extract for vanilla cashew milk.
For sweetened cashew milk add a little maple syrup or simple syrup.
For no added sugar, use a monk fruit blend or monk fruit simple syrup.
If you prefer a strained milk, pour through a nut milk bag, but it's not really needed.
