Frozen Cafe au Lait

Here is a photo of how I store my nut milks in the frig - almond, cashew, macadamia, coconut, etc. I like to use glass because plastic leaches toxins into your food and drinks. Also glass doesn't hold odors or stain like plastic. You can find these on amazon: Glass Jugs

If you are casein-free like me and you haven't made cashew milk yet, please do! I don't like cashews, but cashew milk is delicious, and it makes a great substitute for cream, like in my dairy-free frozen cafe au lait. I used to envy my friends with their Starbucks frappuccinos, but no longer! When I get that yearning I just come home and whip up one of these. Feeling deprived is a thing of the past :-)

For a seasonal twist add a dash of pumpkin pie spice.
