The BEST Homemade Macadamia Milk Recipe
Ingredients
140g / 1 cup macadamia nuts raw, unsalted
1L / 4 cups filtered water
a good pinch of salt
Directions
First, soak macadamia nuts for 4-6hours (or over night) in salt water (mix 1 teaspoon salt with water). The nuts have to be fully covered. Keep in mind that they'll grow a bit when soaking, so just add some extra water to keep them submerged.
After soaking, drain and rinse macadamias thoroughly.
Place nuts together with 1L/4 cups of water and salt into a blender of choice and blend until smooth. In my NutriBullet it takes less than a minute.
Place your nut milk bag (or your alternative) over a jug or big bowl that can hold 1L/4 cups of water. Strain Macadamia Milk through the bag and squeeze out all the liquid until only the nut pulp is left.
Pour your Macadamia Milk into a bottle, jar or container of choice and keep in the fridge. Shake well before using!
