make your own almond or cashew milk!

Here is a trailer to a new movie coming out called "Got the Facts on Milk?". I will post the full Documentary as soon as I can, but go see it in theatres if it's playing near you so we can support them :) Make Vegan Milks yourself! (Just see the easy, awesome recipe below).

You can use raw, unsalted cashews or almonds for this recipe.

1/2 cup (or more if you like it creamier) raw soaked almonds or raw (unroasted) cashews

3 or 4 Tablespoons raw agave nectar (or raw sugar)

4 cups water

3/4 teaspoon sea salt

1 teaspoon vanilla extract or scrapings from a vanilla bean (optional)

Put the ingredients in a blender for a couple of minutes and pour it through a sieve if it is made with almonds- (you don't need to filter the cashew milk because the cashew are soft and turn into cream easily). Use a sieve with larger holes at first to catch the bigger pieces of nuts and then pour it through a finer one so it will be smooth.

Use this milk to replace any recipe that calls for milk, or chill it and drink as is. I love it so much. I make milk shakes by adding bananas, ice, cinnamon and clove powder to the blender.
