- First grind nuts/seeds together using the grinder attachment on your blender (for smoother end consistency). *A coffee grinder can be used to grind nuts/seeds.
- Blend nuts/seeds and water together until smooth. Optional - strain through a nut milk bag or cheesecloth to remove bits/create smoother consistency.
- Add the rest of the ingredients and blend again.
- Warm on low heat in a stainless steel pot.
Clean Eating Tips to remember:
*Commercial dairy milk is produced in a way that can contribute to The Toxic Fat Effect (Module 2 - content covered in the Masterclass slides/videos, live workshop videos and Video #3 - Milk of the 3 part video series '3 Secretly-'evil' ingredients hiding in your kitchen?'), therefore milk alternatives are a cleaner option. Especially if you can avoid store bought - which also can contain questionable stabilisers, thickeners and other additives which contribute to our Chemical Body Burden (Module 2) which also contributes to The Toxic Fat Effect.
* Milk alternatives include my favourite: Coconut Cream/Milk which can be made by blending water with dried organic preservative-free dried Coconut Flakes (grind dry 1st, before blending), or with fresh coconut meat.
* Other milk alternatives, made by blending ¼ cup ingredients (grind dry 1st, before blending with liquid) per 1 cup of water, include: Cashew Nuts, Almonds, Macadamia Nuts, Brasil Nuts, Hemp Seeds, Sunflower Seeds, Sesame Seeds or any other nut or seed you like! (See Video #3 - Milk for more alternatives)
* Sweetened coffee can still be enjoyed with natural sweeteners - see Video #2 - Sugars in Module 2. One of my favourite whole food sweeteners are dates. I keep a cup of dates soaking in water in a sealed jar in the fridge and blend it with my coffee in a blender to break up the dates and make my coffee frothy and creamy. You can also blend soaked dates with the water they have been soaking in to make date paste and use that instead.
