I was really excited to find this article. When I find a great ingredient, I always try to figure out how I can use it in different recipes. Many of my friends have talked about wanting to eat more real food, but absolutely refusing to let go of their coffee creamer which happens to be full of artificial ingredients. I’ve been on the lookout for quite a while for a delicious alternative and I think this cashew chai milk will be a big hit with you.
And……..make sure you check out the special offer at the end to find out how you can get Thrive Market Cashews for free. I hope you are enjoying these special monthly offers. Leave me a comment and let me know if you have tried Thrive Market and if you enjoy these articles from Thrive Market.
Creamy and thick, cashew milk is the more indulgent cousin of plain old almond milk. Here, we’ve taken the flavor up a notch by adding traditional chai spices and butterscotch-like maca powder. Drink it on its own for a refreshing pick-me-up, or try a splash in your morning coffee for a non-dairy latte.
