Cashew Milk

• portionen: 4 servings
• gesamtzeit: 5 minutes

Zutaten

1 cup raw cashews

4 cups water, divided*

1 to 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey or agave nectar

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Dash of sea salt

Pinch of cinnamon (optional)

Anweisungen

Soak the cashews in water at least 4 hours, or overnight in the refrigerator. Drain the cashews and rinse until the water runs clear. Add the cashews and two cups water to a blender. Start on a low setting and increase the speed until the cashews are totally pulverized. This could take 2 minutes in a high-powered blender or longer in a regular blender.

Blend in 2 cups more water*, your sweetener of choice, vanilla extract, sea salt and cinnamon (optional). If your blender can’t totally break down the cashews, strain the milk through a fine mesh strainer or cheese cloth. Store the milk in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days—stir before using.
