Ingredients You’ll Need:
All you need is cashews, water, vanilla, honey, and a pinch of salt! The honey can also be substituted for your favorite sweeteners, such as dates, maple syrup, or sugar-free alternatives. Additionally, you can make this recipe with just cashews and water if you prefer it plain and unsweetened.

A high-speed blender, a strainer, and a mixing bowl. I used the Vitamix blender for this recipe.

Store in the fridge for 3-5 days.
