    ALL YOU REALLY NEED:
    • Whatever you want to make into 'milk'
    • Water
    • Blender
    - bowl
    - sifter/cheesecloth (depending on type of milk)

    - Sugar and other types of things just need to be added for personal taste, but are not necessary to make basic 'milk'.

    NOTE: If the 'whatever' has a shell - like almonds - make sure it's removed, first. Cashews don't have a 'shell' like almonds, so you can just use them as is.

    SO:

    Step 1.
    Put 'whatever' into a bowl, pour hot water in to cover 'whatever' nicely.

    Step 2.
    Let Soak until soft.
    (Some things might be done in an hour, others until the next day. )

    Step 3
    Drain, put in blender. Add water to 'whatever' at a ratio of 1(solid):3(liquid). Vary depending on how thin/thick you want it.

    Step 4
    Blend until the 'milk' is smooth and creamy.

    Step 5
    If the 'milk' has tiny particles/splinters in it, as is the case with almond milk or soy milk. Drain through sifter or cheesecloth to remove excessive pulp residue.


    You're done. That's it. You made basic 'whatever' milk.




    So just today I tried making my first almond milk, and on the way found that one can make cashew 'milk', too.
    ...I did both. I liked the cashew more, probably because it's so fattening.

    Anyways, I figured the two recipes would work for pretty much anything that's nut-like. Including soy-milk. I looked it up. Yeah I was right.
    I really tested this and looked up recipes for 'out there' things like 'sunflower milk', 'pumpkin seed milk', 'black bean milk'. Yes, there are recipes for that on the internet. They all follow the same basic principle. Soften, blend, sift. Finished.


    Now, with these guidelines, let your creativity abound! :)
