Sweet and nutty hemp seed milk for a dairy free alternative.
I absolutely love making my own non-dairy milks at home. Some of my favorites are almond, cashew and hemp milk!
Hemp seeds have incredible health benefits and provide complete nutritional value.
These small yet powerful seeds contain a blend of omega-3 and omega-6 fats.
They are also high in fiber, protein, and contain quality amino acid profile.
Hemp seeds are also high in magnesium, a mineral that helps with relaxation, blood sugar control, blood pressure, and more!
Impressive isn’t it?
I do enjoy plain hemp milk with granola or with my morning coffee but it does have a bit of a grassy taste.
To make plain hemp milk, only 3 ingredients are needed.
In this post, I show you how to also make strawberry and chocolate hemp milk!
Here are a couple of other great hemp seed recipes:

How long can hemp seeds be stored BEFORE going rancid, and should they be stored in pantry or fridge?
Hi! I store my hemp seeds in the freezer but you can also store them in the fridge in an air-tight container for up to 12 months. The milk will last about 5 days in the fridge.
