Basic Plant Milks and Strawberry Variation Recipe
Servings
1 litre
Ingredients
- 1 cups nuts, hemp, oats or seeds (soaked for 4 hours or more)
- 4 cups water
- 5 medjool dates (pitted)
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract or ½ vanilla bean (skin and seeds)
- ⅛ tsp fine grain sea salt
Instructions
- 1
Strain and rinse the soaked nuts/seeds/oats/hemp well in cold water.
- 2
Place the nuts/seeds/oats/hemp, etc and 4 cups of cold water in blender (I measure the water first using the measurements on the blender and then place the nuts/seeds/oats/hemp, etc in with the water). Blend on high for 3 minutes if using a regular blender, if using the Vita-mix blender, 30 seconds is enough. Stain through a Nut Mylk bag (squeeze the bag a little to get all the liquid through) or strain in a fine mesh strainer, pushing it through with a spoon or a spatula.

Place the strainedMylkback in the blender with the dates, vanilla and salt. Blend until smooth.

Transfer to a large mason jar.
