Cashew milk is one of my favorite milks to use in baking. It also works well in cream sauces. This easy recipe will make 1 quart of thick and creamy cashew milk. You can add more water for thinner milk or less for cashew cream. If you plan to drink the milk, you can add a little salt, vanilla or agave to sweeten it.
