This rich and creamy cashew and hemp milk is an amazing alternative and works well with plenty of my recipes.

Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 cup cashews (soaked for a minimum of two hours but not over 8. The nuts get slimy and weird and no one wants weird slimy nuts)
  • ¼ cup hemp seeds (if you are making straight hemp, you don’t need to pre soak the hemp... how awesome is that)
  • 4 cups filtered water
  • ½ tsp pure vanilla
  • pinch sea salt

Instructions

  • Rinse soaked cashews with cold water.
  • Add filtered water and all other ingredients and blend! I like to blend 3 times when using my Blendtec or at least 1 minute when using my Vitamix (I know who is this obnoxious person who owns 2 power blenders?? I inherited one when I got my mister).
  • No need to strain this milk so pour into a glass jar and keep for up to a week.
