Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup pistachios (shelled) Packed with flavor and nutrients; for extra creaminess, soak for 6 hours before blending.
  • 4 cups water Essential for blending and creating a creamy consistency.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Begin by placing the shelled pistachios in a high-powered blender. Pour in the four cups of water, covering the nuts entirely.
  2. Secure the lid tightly and blend on HIGH for about 1-2 minutes until the pistachios break down and the mixture turns into a creamy, pale green liquid.
  3. Lay a piece of cheesecloth over a sieve or fine mesh strainer. Pour the blended mixture into this setup, allowing the milk to flow through while the pulp collects in the cloth.
  4. Transfer the strained Pistachio Milk into a container of your choosing. Seal it well and store it in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Notes

For added sweetness, incorporate honey or maple syrup during blending. You can also experiment by adding vanilla extract or sea salt for different flavors.
