What it is

Cashew milk is a plant-based beverage made from cashews and water. The cashews are typically soaked, then blended with water and strained to create a smooth, creamy liquid. It is often fortified with vitamins and minerals.

Why it's used

Cashew milk is used as a dairy-free alternative to cow's milk in beverages, cereals, and baked goods. Manufacturers add it for its creamy texture and mild, slightly sweet flavor, which can also act as a base for sauces and soups.

Health notes

In the U.S., cashew milk is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated various food ingredients, but specific evaluations for cashew milk as a standalone product are not widely published. It is a source of plant-based protein and can be a good source of calcium and vitamin D if fortified.

Allergen info

Cashew milk is derived from tree nuts, which are one of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
