Making your own plant-based milk is a no-brainer, especially when you read the labels on store-bought milk.
By making your own vegan milk you get to control the consistency as well as how much sweetener goes into it.
The result is a sweet, creamy Cashew Milk you can not only feel good about drinking, but that tastes even better than store-bought.
For some vegan coffee creamer recipes, try my Caramel Creamer or my Vanilla Coffee Creamer.
Other recipes to try are my No-Bake Dairy Free Cheesecake, Cashew Fruit Dip and Almond Milk with Spices.

💭 Tips
- If you want a really thick consistency, start with less water, like if you want to use it as creamer for coffee.
- I like my cashew milk on the sweeter side, so I use the full 3 tablespoons of maple syrup. Start with less and see how you like it.
- If you are using this in a savory recipe, omit the maple syrup and the vanilla extract.
- Cashew milk will separate when stored in the refrigerator. Just give it a shake before using it.
♨️ Can It Be Heated?
Yes, it can! Cashew milk heats up nicely for things like oatmeal or other recipes.
