Nut Milks
A delicious raw vegan version of the popular eggnog.
This is a non-fermented nut yogurt, heavily influenced by a combination of the Tom Yum Yogurt and Chai Nut Mylk recipes from “Rainbow Green Live Food Cuisine”. This brings together two of my great loves: Chocolate and Indian cuisine! The walnuts provide more of a yogurt-like consistency than other nuts.
Chocolate and maca, creamy almond milk, and sweet

Everyone loves a good milkshake, right? You can make any nut mylk (using hemp seeds, almonds, Brazil nuts, pumpkin seeds – individually or some combination of them) and use it as the base for an entirely guilt-free, yet totally indulgent mylkshake.

But truth be told, there’s very little reason to spend money on a store bought brand. Nut milk is one of the very easiest raw food products to make at home! Sure, if you don’t have the energy or time, a store bought brand is fine. But I think you’ll find that investing just a little effort in homemade nut milk pays off in a big way. You can adjust flavors, sweetness, and best of all, you can feel a sense of pride in having created your nut milk from scratch.

This is a really fun and easy recipe you can use when you’re hosting at your place and want to make the drinks fun and healthy. The combination of vanilla almond milk and maca powder is truly divine – and don’t be surprised if you find yourself feeling a little frisky. Among other things, Maca is known for increasing libido.

This is a great nut milk to put in smoothies and puddings, and it’s lovely warmed up gently in a pan, too. The taste is distinctive, so it’s not the right choice for delicate recipes with sensitive flavor balances. On it’s own, though, or in a brilliant morning smoothie, this stuff is delicious. Here’s how to make it. 

A light, creamy, medicinal sesame sweet potato drink with some powerful hormone balancing effects. Once blended thoroughly, the sweet potato takes on a very pleasant, delicate flavor and combines very well with the rich earthiness of the sesame milk. This recipe contains both ashwaghanda and maca which are both adaptogenic herbs helping to balance and strengthen the endocrine system. Ashwaghanda in particular is one of the most widely used herbs in Ayurvedic medicine for energy and strength and also has a very calming effect on the nervous system. Lucuma, maca and cinnamon combine synergistically to help balance out the somewhat strong flavor of the ashwaghanda. Enjoy for breakfast or as a calming drink before bed time.

Simplicity at it's finest! This chocolate mylk recipe combines fresh coconut milk with ice, a few drops of stevia, and of course a few tbs of Rawtella for a rich cacao hazelnut experience. Rawtella is sweetened only with coconut sugar crystals, which are low glycemic. Stevia is NO glycemic which makes this recipe very easy on the blood sugar. Sip on it's own, as a mylk over a raw cereal or porridge, or as a base for smoothies. Or leave out the ice, add a bit more water, and gently warm on the stove top and sprinkle with a little extra cocoa powder and coconut crystals for a warm drinking chocolate. Mmmm

Amber Shea Crawley describes this raw vegan pecan milk as "smooth, silky, luxurious—this stuff’s liquid velvet." It is rich, creamy, and thick in texture making it more like a thin milkshake than a liquidy nut milk. The flavors of pecan, maple syrup, vanilla and cinnamon go so perfectly well together. Amber jokes that those flavors are a "polygamous marriage made in heaven". This recipe was adapted from a recipe in Matthew Kenney and Sarma Melngailis’ book Raw Food/Real World, and it’s fantastic!
