Like Cereal Milk? Try My Cashew Collagen Smoothie Milk
Meet Cereal Milk's cousin. I am in love with Milk Bar in NYC. I used to live a block over from the store in Williamsburg and I dream of Cereal Milk. This recipe is my own take on Christina Tosi's recipe. Feel free to play with the nuts and try blanched almonds or raw macadamia nuts.
You can use this thick (almost milkshake-like milk) in your tea lattes (I blend them) or you can also drink this straight-up!
Def let me know if you make this recipe! Tag me @chefcarlacontreras on Instagram.

Ingredients:
(
Makes about three cups)
1 cup raw cashews, soaked overnight in filtered water
1 scoop vanilla collagen powder
2 cups filtered water
1/8 tsp. sea salt
Instructions:
Put the cashews in an airtight container with enough room to cover them with 1 cup of filtered water. Place on the counter or in the fridge overnight for up to 24 hours. For the fast version, soak for at least 30 minutes.
Rinse the cashews, and then place into a high-speed blender.
Add the water and scoop of vanilla collagen powder, blend on high for one minute.
Drink straight-up or make a tea latte.

Lasts up to two days in the fridge.

I celebrated 12 years of being of sober at the beginning of May. It’s not something I share often, but this is the deeper why to my mocktails and the reason that I create them. Sobriety gives me the clarity to tune into myself in order to create. If you are part of my community on Instagram, you know that I make fancy mocktails.
However, what I drink regularly is a simple mocktail made with apple cider vinegar, a dropper full of Belly Love tincture from Anima Mundi, a dash of orange bitters, and I top it with seltzer. If you like the tartness of apple cider vinegar, you will love this! Try the Weekday Mocktail
