Lavender Walnut Milk

Obtained from this page, I found it a challenge to strain it as well as the nut milk needed to be to be drinkable. Perhaps I just needed to blend it for longer, but after a time, it started to froth up at the top of the blender, which I didn't exactly want either. Perhaps next time I will either just let it keep blending and deal with the froth, or else I'll use a cheesecloth to strain it.
Picture
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 tablespoon raw hemp seeds
  • 1/4 cup raw walnuts
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • two pinches sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon dried edible lavender buds
  • 2 teaspoons honey (plus more to taste)
  1. Blend water, hemp seeds, walnuts, vanilla, and salt until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
  2. Transfer into a small saucepan and heat over medium heat until tiny bubbles begin to form and steam rises. Remove from heat.
  3. Place dried lavender in a tea sachet or disposable tea bag and seal, then immerse in milk and cover saucepan. Steep for ten minutes, then remove sachet and squeeze to release all lavender oils.
  4. Stir in honey to taste. Serve immediately, or blend again for higher foam factor.

    No Caffeine Needed

    I am, by nature, already a pretty high-energy person, but I like a beautiful-looking mug of something frothy and delicious-looking as much as the next person. I obtained a French press so that I could feel fancy at home too, but nearly everything I make from it is, by necessity, caffeine-free, so that I don't vibrate my way out of my skin the rest of the day (or drive everyone else around me crazy).
