Homemade cashew milk

Ingredients:

• 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)

Preparation:

1. Cover raw nuts with water and soak for at least 1 hour (the longer, the better). Drain and rinse the nuts.
2. 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.
3. 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.
