Here is a fantastic way to gain all the nutritious benefits of nuts and seeds in the RAW state.

Grocery store plant milks are pasteurized and contain less actual whole nuts / seeds / grains than if we make them at home.

THE BASIC RECIPE FOR ALL

• Choose your nut / seed

• Put them in a jar and double the amount of water. Use room temperature - warmish water.

• Add a dollop of apple cider vinegar

• A dash of sea salt

• Stir

• Let it soak for 24 hours. The desired outcome is for the nut or seed to grow a little tail meaning they have 'sprouted'. When they sprout our body has an easier time digesting nutrients, aka they have become more bioavailable.

• Next day: rinse, add fresh water and then blend. Decide if you want to sweeten or add spice.

CASHEW MILK

• Quick because there is no need to strain or use a nut milk bag- they just blend up smooth!

• Soak 1 cup cashews in warm water with a dash of apple cider vinegar

• Rinse and put in the blender

• Add fresh water until you reach the consistency you like

• Sweeten and add sea salt if you want

• I also like to add a little scoop of arrowroot or tapioca powder to keep things smooth (optional)

HOMEMADE CHOCOLATE SUNFLOWER SEED MILK:

• Soak sunflower seeds overnight in warm water with a dash of unpasteurized apple cider vinegar

• Drain and rinse well

• Add to the blender with fresh water and blend

• Add water until the consistency you like

• Add cacao until it reaches the colour of chocolate you like

• Add coconut sugar to sweeten

• Add sea salt and any other spices you like

• Blend and then strain through a cheesecloth / nut milk bag

• Store in the fridge for 4-6 days, shake before use

HOMEMADE ALMOND MYLK

• The classic! Use a cheesecloth for a smoother milk

• Soak 1 cup almonds with warm water and apple cider vinegar

• Rinse, remove almond skins.

• Add almonds into the blender with sea salt and add water until the consistency you like

• Add spices and sweetener and arrowroot or tapioca starch to keep smooth (optional)

• Blend and strain
