    Spicy Cardamom Walnut Milk

    spicy cardamom walnut milk

    OMG! this spicy cardamom walnut milk is the bomb!  Ever since my foodie friend, Anna Pippus (Easy Animal Free) posted it, I've been addicted.  It's fast, easy, delicious, dairy free, and super flavourful.

    Does this happen to you?  Around two o'clock every afternoon, I get a bit peckish and start looking for something sweet to eat. Enter spicy, chai-inspired, thick and delicious, walnut-hemp milk. The great thing about this drink is it's hot, it's sweet, it's spicy, it's healthy, it's dairy free; and it's the perfect comforting hot drink for the witching hour.  I love it warm - full strength or I steep some black tea and make a chai-tea latte.

    You can easily make this with cashew nuts instead of walnuts and can also make it chocolatey if you are craving a bit of chocolate (I mean, who doesn't every now and then, right!).

    Delicious with these epic Chocolate Chunk Marshmallow Cookie Cups, this incredible Banana Bread, or splurge with these One-Bite Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups!

    Enjoy your new favourite drink!!!

    Prep Time 5 minutes mins

    Equipment

    • blender

    INGREDIENTS

    • ¼ cup walnut pieces
    • 2 tbsp hemp seeds*
    • 4-8 dates, pitted*
    • 4 cloves cardamom (I used black)*
    • ½ tsp cinnamon
    • pinch salt
    • 2 cups hot water
    • 2 tbsp cocoa powder (optional)*

    INSTRUCTIONS
     

    • If you don’t have a high-powered blender, soak the nuts, seeds, and dates first. Otherwise, throw everything into your blender and blend it up until smooth (around 2 minutes).
    • The walnuts can leave some small fibrous bits behind which can be strained out (with a nut milk bag or a fine mesh strainer) if you prefer. I don't strain as I like the texture and the nutrition from the whole nuts and seeds. 
    • Store in the fridge for up to 5 days, but it won't last!
      Shake before using.

    NOTES

    You can sub the walnuts for cashews.
    Five medjool dates is the perfect sweetness for my taste but use more or less to your preference.
    I use black cardamom seeds (just break the pod open and sprinkle the seeds into the blender). I use 4 cardamom pods, but you can use more or less to taste.
