Since making nut milk last time on the blog, I've bought a nut milk bag. It's made this process SO much easier. If you're into nut milk at all, it's a $8 well-spent (you can buy it right on Amazon).
Servings 4cups
Ingredients
1cupraw cashews
approximately 4 cups of water
1-2pitted dates
1teaspoonvanilla extract
pinchsea salt
pinchcinnamon
Instructions
Soak cashews in water for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
Blend cashews with all remaining ingredients, but start with 3 cups of water. Check the consistency of the milk, and then add more water as needed. It's much easier to add more water to thin out the milk, than to realize you added too much water.
Strain milk with a nut milk bag or with a cheesecloth and strainer. See my previous post on nut milk for detailed directions.
