Learn how to prepare my nut milk recipes with the aid of a small coffee bean grinder, a blender, a hand-held mesh strainer, a bowl, and a stirring spoon. Simply choose your favorite nuts and seeds as a base for each recipe, then layer in the flavors that compliment them. You can add fresh fruits, or rehydrated dried fruits (think creamy texture), natural flavoring extracts, and the liquid of your choice. Waterworks fine, but you can also add other liquids. I fortify my nut milk with ingredients such as sunflower seed lecithin granules and flax seeds, both of which are heart-healthy and brain healthy.
Here's a sampling of the recipes you can make:
- Apple fruit harvest pecan milk (Nature’s fruit and nut tree orchards come to life)
- Mock eggnog cashew milk (A yummy holiday treat, throw another log onto the fire)
- Minty chocolate pumpkin seed milk (A chocolaty delicious treat, with a hint of refreshing mint, that even my husband, who has a nut allergy, can enjoy)
- Apricot orange cashew and almond milk (This drink has a sunny fresh flavor and tons of vitamin A)
- Banana coconut date walnut milk (Coconut milk and vanilla flavoring enrich the flavor of this creamy delight)
- Cranapple orange walnut milk (Drink by itself, or add to an apple cake recipe)
- Mellow sweet almond cocoa (Who needs sugar-sweetened chocolate cow’s milk?)
- Banana raisin sunflower seed milk (A hearty and satisfying libido booster)
- Cinnamon spiced pumpkin seed milk (It might remind you of pumpkin pie)
- Pure and sweet almond milk (Minus the inflammatory ingredient that is added to store brands)
