Instructions
- Measure cashews into a container and cover with filtered water. Allow to soak for 6-8 hours. This softens the nut and makes it easier to blend, leaving less particles of nut in the finished milk (plus you get some of the benefits of soaking nuts too!).
- Note: Most commercial cashews are not raw. Soaking for longer than 8 hours may cause the nut to be bitter, resulting in bitter milk. You don’t need to blend right away, but at least strain from the water no later than the 8-hour mark.
- Drain nuts and place in a blender. Add 4 cups of filtered water and blend until smooth, approximately 1 minute. Store in the refrigerator and enjoy cold.
Notes
For two cups: ½ cup cashews, 2 cups water
For one cup: ¼ cup cashews, 1 cup hot water
