NUT MILK 3 WAYS
Dairy-free milk has come such a long way in the last few years. I remember when the only dairy-free option was soy at coffee places if they even had one! Now it is all over and growing in popularity and products. Have you ever thought making your own dairy- free milk would be great but maybe its too complicated or not worth the hastle? Making your own dairy-free milk, is simple and very cost effective! I have three go-to recipes I use frequently that are easy to make and are so good you may never buy nut milk again!
