It wasn’t the biggest deal in the world, but still, it wasn’t the best thing either! After a few too many times of this happening, I realized I have to suck it up and just start straining my cashew milk. It would come as a rude awakening as I poured the last of the cashew milk onto my cereal, only realizing that the end of it dumped a nice pile of pulverized cashew pieces onto the top of my breakfast. All the creamy pieces of cashew that melded together so well right out of the blender, ended up settled into the bottom of the jar I kept it in and made for a weird sludge at the bottom. ![]() But, I did run into an issue about two days into my fresh homemade cashew milk being in the fridge-the settling.

I confess there are a lot of store-bought flavors in our freezer too, but this batch of ice cream won the popularity contest this week and disappeared in record time.
