Home Made Raw Macadamia Milk

To make raw home made macadamia nut milk:

• 1 cup raw macadamias soaked for about 4 hours
• 3 or 4 cups of purified water (depending on how rich you want the milk to taste and what you are using it for)

1. Throw 1 cup of raw soaked macadamias in your Vitamix with 3-4 cups of water, depending on how rich you want the milk and what you are using it for.
2. I tend to use the 3:1 rule and it works for me. The richer the better for me. But if you are new to macadamias you might want to start with a 4:1 ratio.
3. If I am using macadamia but milk in soups and smoothies, I just use it naked and untouched. But if you are going to drink it, or use it on cereals, you may want to jazz it up a bit. I have listed some suggestions that have worked for me. But like the other nut milks – the sky is the limit. Like other milks – you can sweeten it, and it lends itself to fruit and chocolate flavourings beautifully. Trust me – discover the macadamia milk secret, and it will change your life!

For a basic flavour for cereals and breakfast drinks try:

• 3-4 pitted dates, 3 Tbsp maple syrup, yacon syrup, raw agave, raw honey, coconut sugar, OR a few drops of Stevia
• 1-2 tsp of natural vanilla extract
• a pinch of Celtic sea salt or Himalayan salt

For a richer, creamier milk you could also add:

• 1 Tbsp of coconut butter
• 1 Tbsp of NON GM soy or sunflower lecithin

But I never feel like it needs it.

**You could add some raw cacao powder for chocolate milk, fresh fruit, coconut and cinnamon and sweeten to taste.
