Making fresh homemade cashew cream is extremely simple and nutritious. I prefer making my own and enjoy experimenting with different ways to use it. All you need is a few ingredients and a blender. The end result is delicious. Try this basic recipe and see for yourself.

This is a great non-dairy alternative to add to beverages of your choice. Combine with tea for instance, or use as a nut milk base in a smoothie. Get creative and make a flavored beverage with it, or use it in recipes that call for milk.

If you only need a serving for one or two persons simply cut this recipe in half, and for more servings, double, even triple it.

Feel free to experiment using other nuts [almonds, brazil nuts], or seeds [pumpkin seeds] for different and flavorful taste adventure.
