Akil's Cashew Strawberry Milkshake Heaven (All Vegan)

Packed full of delicious protein, raw cashews are often my go-to source to make protein-rich nut milk, nut-based sauces and nutty smoothies. The raw flesh of the cashew is sweet, soft, delicious and smooth. 

Even a handful of raw cashews keep me good during a movie when I’m trying to avoid potato chip binging––which I do more often than I care to write about. Cashews help me escape the habit while giving me a bonafide nutrition boost.

One of my favorite cashew masterpieces is my Cashew Strawberry Milkshake. It’s amazing. It’s emotional. It’s an event. And it’s whipped-up with sweet frothy ease. Wanna know how?

Ok. Here we go below.

Instructions:

1 - Rinse your cashew pieces thoroughly. 

2- In a container, soak clean cashews in spring water overnight in the fridge.

3 - Post soak, take 2 cups of softened cashew pieces and put into a blender.

4 - Add approximately 3 cups of water.

5 - Add a frozen banana (and an optional scoop of cashew ice-cream). Blend thoroughly.

6 - Add a capful of vanilla extract and a little less than 1/4-teaspoon of stevia

7 - Add approximately 1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg

8 - Add a couple shakes of sea salt.

9 - Blend thoroughly. 

10 - Add approximately 3 cups of frozen strawberries.

11 - Blend thoroughly. 

12 - Add more water, strawberry, banana, stevia or water as your palette prefers, to perfect your milkshake.

14 - Place mixture in the freezer for about 15-20 minutes.

When you remove your milkshake from the freezer it’s going to be crazy good and cold and thick. I usually like to top mine off with a piece of fresh mint and cacao powder when I’m feeling all fancy. Did I really just say that?

If you’re ever over my home and you happen to see me happily sipping one, don’t ask me for any thinking you’re just going to roll-up on my bliss like that. With my mouth filled, I will quickly text you a link to this article and point you toward my kitchen. My mouth will be too immersed in creamy strawberry heaven to pay you any mind.

It’s a cold, sweet, frothy world. Get in where you fit in.
