Creamy Cashew Milk Egg Nog

Better than Eggnog- Dairy-Free White Russian Cocktail

Let’s face it, no one really LOVES eggnog. It’s like fruitcake, one of those things we serve this time of year because it’s a tradition, not because it’s the most delicious option. Well, why not start a new tradition with this scrumptious take on a White Russian.  It’s creamy, nutty, and lightly spiced.

Ingredients: makes 2 cups 1/2 cup cashews soaked in water 2-4 hrs 1 1/2 cups filtered water 1 vanilla bean, split down the middle* 1 tsp maple syrup sea salt Drain and rinse the cashews in a strainer. Add to a blender along with the water and blend starting on low then bringing up to high speed until …
