Recipe
Makes 2 cups
⅓ cup hemp seeds
2 cups water
⅛ teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon pure vanilla

How to Prepare
Place hemp seeds in a blender and add the 2 cups of water. Blend for 1 to 2 minutes.
Pour hemp milk into a nut milk bag* over a large bowl. Squeeze the bag so that the milk flows through the bag and into the bowl. The hemp seed pulp should be left inside the bag and discarded.
Sweeten milk, if desired. Store milk in an airtight container in the coldest part of the refrigerator. The milk should last 2 to 3 days before spoiling.
*NOTE: Don’t have a nut milk bag? Try a clean kitchen towel.
