Walnut Milk: An Easy and Wholesome Twist on a Classic

This amazing milk, which doesn't contain a drop of dairy, is unlike anything you'll find elsewher—not even in premium health stores. Surprisingly, it works out to your benefit. If you found it commercially, it would likely contain preservatives and other additives you probably want to avoid. It's always best to consume things we make ourselves, and when they're this easy to prepare, what's the problem?

You can prepare the walnuts as suggested in this video, or purchase pre-shelled walnuts for making a large batch of milk that'll last you several days.

Personally, I consume walnuts and other nuts daily through energy balls I've created using nuts, dates, and spices. I definitely feel stronger and more energetic when I start my day with my health balls. But balls are a bit more complex than making milk.

Now that I've discovered this recipe, it frees me from having to make nut balls (which do require a little more preparation than this milk).

In fact, you can substitute any other nut in this recipe: macadamia, cashews, hazelnuts, walnuts, and even pumpkin or sunflower seeds.

Recently, I told you about tiger nuts—so I assume you can use them too, but remember they need to be ground first with a good spice grinder.

To make this recipe, you'll need a good blender. I use a Ninja cup like in the video. Put your nuts into the cup, cover them with water, blend well until smooth, then squeeze the mixture through a cloth into a large container you've prepared in advance.

You can keep the nut milk in the fridge almost indefinitely, in a sealed container, of course.
