Equipment

  • 1 High Speed Blender

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Cup Raw Cashews
  • 2-3 Cups Filtered Water For a rich & creamy consistency use 2 cups of water.
  • 3-6 Medjool Dates, Pitted I suggest soaking them in water for about 15 minutes so they're soft and easy to blend.
  • 1+½ Teaspoons Vanilla Extract
  • ¼ Teaspoons Salt

Instructions
 

  • Start by pouring boiling water into a small bowl with raw cashews. Let them soak for 1-2 hours. (Overnight works too!)
    I also suggest soaking the dates in boiling water for about 15 minutes to soften them up before blending.
  • Drain the soaked cashews and dates with a strainer.
  • Then add them to a high-speed blender with fresh filtered water, medjool dates, vanilla extract, and salt.
  • Blend on high for 2-3 minutes or until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  • Pour into a mason jar or glass container with an airtight lid. Store in the refrigerator until you're ready to use!

Notes

Expert Tips

  • Cashew milk will separate in the refrigerator so give it a good shake before pouring.
  • Use an electric milk frother to create a light and fluffy consistency before adding to your coffee.
  • Use a high-speed blender to create a super creamy consistency. Because this is a very liquidy recipe, I don't recommend using a food processor.
  • Add more or less water depending on how thick and creamy you want the final product to be. The thinner it is, the more of a "milk" consistency it will have.
