From our friend Jora… an amazing person… and her friend Mona.

The nut milk:

1 cup nuts (unsalted raw – best) soaked overnight in clean water.

Strain and rinse and add:

4 cups water

Blend in your vita-mix (popveg says you have to have one of these… it’s absolutely the best) for about a minute

Strain through cheese cloth or nut milk bag. And squeeze the cloth to get the moisture out of the pulp.

Add: 1/8 -1/4 cup agave nectar
Pinch of salt
Teaspoon of vanilla or a 1/4 teaspoon of almond extract
A few dates are good too

Mix these together (if you use dates – you will blend this again in your vitamix)

Refrigerate and enjoy.

This will last about four or five days in your refrigerator.

I love pecans and walnuts but my favorite by far is brazil nuts.

Brazil nut milk is criminally good!

OH – and if you need a nut bag (better than cheesecloth)… here’s one to check out:
