At first, carrot milk recipe might sound a bit strange, but just a sip will reveal the hype. Cooked carrots and cashews combine in this recipe to make a naturally sweet, velvety plant milk. A mildly sweet beverage in a beautiful orange hue that looks too pretty to be drunk. This milk has body and a natural sweetness from the carrot that regular plant milks lack. Great for a quick breakfast on a busy morning or as a nutritious snack.
This creamy cashew carrot milk is simple to make. First, peel and chop the carrots, then cook them with the cashews until soft and tender. After cooking, drain all and immediately cool it quickly in cold water. Just throw it all in a blender with cold water, a bit of honey and a pinch of salt, and blend on high for a couple of minutes until everything is very smooth. Strain it afterwards to get that velvety finish. Take your time with blending, as this creamy cashew carrot milk improves the longer it is blended.
This drink is not just a tasty beverage; it also provides real nutrition. The beta-carotene is released more easily from the carrots during cooking, and the cashews enhance the absorption of the goodness. Plus, because very little pulp is wasted, you're left with more fibre than most of the milks you'd purchase in the store. Learn how you can make this creamy carrot milk recipe smooth every time.
