Ingredients
1 cup | Cashew nuts, raw |
2 cups | Water, filtered |
1 | Vanilla bean, seeds only, or a dash of vanilla extract |
1 pinch | Salt |
½ cup | Chia seeds, white or black, raw (Main) |

Directions
- Blend cashews, water, vanilla and salt until creamy and smooth. Pour into a mixing bowl. (This makes 600ml of cashew milk.)
- Add the chia seeds and maple syrup to the milk, mix well with a whisk so there are no lumps.
- For the berry compote, place berries, maple syrup, lime juice and salt in a blender and blend until smooth.

- Top with the berry compote and if you want some extra sweetness add a dash of maple syrup.
