Cashew Milk

Cashews are a softer nut and therefore do not need to be soaked overnight to be able to blend smoothly as almonds or hazelnuts do. Use fresh cashew milk over a cooked whole grain cereal for breakfast or use it to make fruit smoothies. I sometimes like to make this milk a little thicker by reducing the amount of water to 1 cup, and use it like a coffee creamer in my spice tea for a late night warming drink. If you are not using this milk in savory recipes, try adding a splash of pure maple syrup to it while blending!
