Date Flavored Nut Milks
All kinds of plant-based milks are popular right now. Our recipe shows you how to kick things up a notch by making your own, flavored with DateME date paste and a dash of vanilla. We tried walnut and cashew variations, delicious with the natural sweetness of date paste.

Ingredients
Using Walnut Milk:
- 1 cup raw walnuts
- 3½ cups water
- ¼ cup DateME Date Paste
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- pinch of salt
- 1 cup raw cashews
- 3 cups water
- 2 Tbsp. DateME Date Paste
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- pinch of salt
Directions
- For each of the nut milks, pour the nuts into a container or jar and cover them with water. Allow them to soak for 4 hours in the refrigerator.
- Drain the nuts and pour them along with the water, date paste, vanilla extract, and salt into a blender. Blend the mixture together for about 30-45 seconds.
- Use cheesecloth, a nut milk bag, or a fine strainer to strain the nut milk.
- Optionally, scrape the remaining nut pulp out of the cheesecloth or strainer and put it back into the blender. Add a little additional water and strain again.
- Store the date flavored nut milk in an airtight jar and use within 3-4 days.
