Ingredients
- 1 cup macadamia nuts (I used organic macadamia nuts)
- 4 cups filtered water (Use less for a thicker, creamy texture)
- Optional: 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 2-4 dates, and a pinch of sea salt.
Instructions
- Soak one cup of macadamia nuts in water overnight or for at least 4-6 hours. Soaking helps soften the nuts, making them easier to blend and enhancing the creaminess of the milk.
- Once soaked, drain and rinse the macadamia nuts thoroughly.
- In a high-speed blender, combine the soaked macadamia nuts and 4 cups of filtered water. Blend on high speed until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
- To achieve a velvety consistency, strain the blended mixture using a nut milk bag or a fine mesh strainer lined with cheesecloth. Squeeze out all the liquid, leaving behind any remaining pulp.
- Transfer the strained macadamia nut milk to a clean airtight container.
- Store your homemade macadamia nut milk in the refrigerator, where it will stay fresh for approximately 5-7 days. Remember to give it a good shake before each use, as natural separation may occur.
