Many raw food recipes call for cashew milk or other nut milks, such as almond milk. Raw cashew milk is delicious on its own and can be used as a vegan milk substitute for breakfast cereal, and you can also add a little cinnamon or nutmeg. If you'd like to try cashew milk as a dairy replacement, we have a recipe suitable for vegans and raw foodists. You can also strain the finished milk if desired.

The recipes use measuring containers with the following volumes:
1 glass (st.) - 250 ml.
3/4 cup (st.) - 180 ml.
2/3 cup (st.) - 160 ml.
1/2 cup (st.) - 125 ml.
1/3 cup (st.) - 80 ml.
1/4 cup (st.) - 60 ml.
1 tablespoon (tbsp) - 15 ml.
1 teaspoon (tsp) - 5 ml.
1/5 teaspoon (tsp) - 1 ml.

Ingredients for the recipe:

1/2 cup raw cashews
2 cups water (plus extra for soaking)
As a natural sweetener: a little agave syrup (or another unprocessed sweetener, such as maple syrup or honey)

Ingredient Substitution Suggestions

We recommend

Recipes with similar ingredients: cashew nuts, Agave nectar, maple syrup, honey

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:

Cover raw nuts with water and soak for at least 1 hour (the longer, the better). Drain and rinse the nuts.
Place the cashews and 2 cups of water in a blender or food processor and process until smooth, about 1 minute. Add a natural sweetener, such as agave syrup, to taste.

You can adjust the milk's thickness to your liking by using more or less water. Generally, though, the cashew to water ratio should be 1:4.
Exit: 2 tbsp.
