Ultra Creamy Chocolate Cashew Milk
Rich, ultra-creamy Chocolate Cashew Milk is a nutrient-rich, dairy-free chocolate milk that actually tastes indulgent. It’s naturally sweetened, super chocolaty, and made with whole ingredients you can feel great about! Plus? No straining required. Just blend and sip! It's great in coffee, smoothies, oatmeal, etc.
Ingredients
- 1 cup raw cashews
- 3-4 cups filtered water *For an extra thick & creamy milk, use 3 cups
- 2-4 tbsp maple syrup or 3-4 pitted, medjool dates *more to taste
- 1/4 cup hemp seeds (optional)
- 1/4 cup raw cacao powder or cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp sea salt *more to taste
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender.
- Blend on high for a couple minutes until completely smooth and creamy.
- Tip: If your blender is lower-powered, soak cashews in warm water for 20 minutes first. Simply bring a pot of water to a boil, then remove from heat. Add the cashews & let soak 15-20 minutes. Then drain & use.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or chocolate intensity.
- Chill for a couple hours for the best experience!
- Serve over ice, with coffee, or warm it like hot chocolate. It's great on it's own too ;)
