Nut Milk Ingredients
- 4 cups (930 g) water
- 1 cup (120 g) raw unsalted cashews
- 1/2 cup (85 g) raw unsalted almonds
- 1/4 tsp Diamond Crystal kosher salt
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Add the cashews, almonds, water, and kosher salt into a high-speed blender. Using raw unsalted nuts ensures a clean, natural taste.
- Blend: Start blending on low speed and gradually increase to high. Continue blending for about 2 minutes until the mixture becomes super creamy and smooth.

- Store: Transfer the strained nut milk into a glass container and refrigerate. It will stay fresh for up to 1 week.
Notes
- Use a high-speed blender for the creamiest results.
- Soaking the nuts overnight is optional but can improve digestibility and creaminess.
- The leftover nut pulp can be used in baking or smoothies to avoid waste.
- Always store the nut milk in a sealed container in the refrigerator.
- Shake well before each use as natural separation may occur.
