Cashew milk

Creamy, mild, and slightly sweet with a subtle nutty flavor, richer in texture than almond milk.

Lens analyzed

Cashew milk is a dairy-free beverage made from blended cashews and water, strained or left unstrained for a thicker texture. It's creamier than many other plant-based milks because cashews blend into a smoother, richer liquid.

Where it comes from

Cashew-based drinks grew popular as part of the broader expansion of plant-based milk alternatives on North American grocery shelves, offering a creamier option compared to thinner almond or rice milks.

Buying it

Check the ingredient list for added sugar or thickeners if you want a plain, simple version, and shake the carton before pouring since cashew solids can settle.

Storing it

An unopened shelf-stable carton keeps in the pantry; refrigerate after opening and use within about a week to ten days.

Keeps about 10 days in the fridge.
