How to make nut milk <\/b><\/p>\n

Why make nut milk when you can just as easily buy Rice Dream<\/a> or Almond Breeze<\/a> in the hippy section of your local supermarket? The packaged nut milks you get in stores have been pasteurized which damages the enzymes and nutrients contained in raw, unheated nuts. Plus its super easy!<\/p>\n

Basically, there are four ways to make nut milks: the Grinder Method<\/a>, the Soaking Method, the Soy Milk Maker<\/a> Method and the \u201cDon\u2019t Ditch the Pulp\u201d Method. Nut milks can be stored up to two days in the fridge.<\/p>\n

The Soaking Method <\/b><\/p>\n

Soak nuts in about 4 cups of water for at least 4 hours or overnight in your fridge. You can either cover the nuts or not\u2026 either way is fine. Using this method the nuts don\u2019t have to be skinned.<\/p>\n

1. Place the nuts and soaking water in a high speed blender and blend on high speed until smooth.
2. Pour contents through a fine mesh sieve or a nut milk bag into a glass jar or pitcher
3. If using sweeteners or fortifiers stir in with spoon or put back into blender and blend in<\/p>\n

The Soy Milk Maker Method<\/b><\/p>\n

1. Soak 1 cup of nuts in 2 cups of water for at least 4 hours or overnight in your fridge.
2. Place drained nuts in the filter cup of your soy milk maker and attach to motor base. Fill the pitcher with water and place motor base on the pitcher. Plug in machine.
3. Follow the manufacturer\u2019s instructions and set the soy maker to the grind cycle. Make sure it is NOT set to any of the heat cycles.
4. Pour contents through a fine mesh sieve into a glass jar or pitcher
5. If using sweeteners or fortifiers stir in with spoon or put back into blender and blend in<\/p>\n

The \u201cDon\u2019t Ditch the Pulp\u201d Method<\/b><\/p>\n

This is my personal favorite. When I make nut milks it\u2019s usually a combination of the grinder method and this method. Simply put, you don\u2019t strain the milk and you benefit from all the nutrients that the pulp contains. This works equally well with soaked or un-soaked nuts.<\/p>\n

Strawberry Cardamom \u201cMilk\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n

\"Photobucket\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u2153 cup raw cashews, ground fine (if you have a Vitamix you won\u2019t need to grind them)<\/p>\n

1 Tbsp Flaxseed, ground fine
1 cup ripe strawberries
\u00bc Tsp ground cardamom
3 to 3 \u00bd cups water<\/p>\n

Make cashew flaxseed milk using any of the four methods listed above. While nut milk is still in blender, add strawberries and cardamom. Blend until smooth and serve.<\/p>\n

Creamy Pi\u00f1a Colada \u201cMilkshake\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n

\"Photobucket\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u2153 cup macadamia nuts, ground fine
1 young coconut, water and meat blended to make coconut milk
1 cup ripe pineapple, chopped
1 banana, loosely chopped<\/p>\n

Prepare macadamia nut milk using any of the four methods listed above, substituting coconut milk for plain water. While nut milk is still in blender, add chopped pineapple and banana. Blend until smooth and serve. For a more milkshake consistency add ice.<\/p>\n

There are no rules when it comes to raw food\u2026 if you want a lighter version of the Pi\u00f1a Colada Milkshake simply omit the macadamia nut milk.<\/p>\n

There are just so many health problems<\/a> associated with dairy products. If you think about it we are the only species to drink milk as adults and we are the only species to drink the milk of another animal. It\u2019s infant formula for cows, do you really think it\u2019s going to be good for a human to drink? Cow\u2019s<\/a> are usually pumped so full of hormones and antibiotics which end up in their milk and eventually into the person who drinks it. Check out this interview with Robert Cohen<\/a>, author of \u2018Milk, The Deadly Poison<\/a>\u2019 about the dangers of dairy.<\/font><\/p>\n
