Hemp milk is incredibly healthy. I knew that for years, but still avoided it most of the time because I couldn’t stand the way the store-bought versions tasted. Then we tried making it at home and the difference was night and day. I was hooked!
Rich in essential fatty acids (with more protein than most nondairy milks), creamy hemp milk can be made in seconds and is great for your heart, hair, skin, nails, and brain function.
For best results, use as many organic ingredients as possible.
