Hemp milk is a very tasty and healthy alternative to regular milk or store bought alternatives and much cheaper option you'll be surprised just how easy it is!
I get my organic hemp seeds and pink Himalayan salt from Mountain Rose Herbs

Instructions:
You will need to pour the seeds and water into blender add the salt and raw honey. My blender has a liquefy setting and i use it on high 3-5 minutes to make sure it is well blended. I use a small strainer and cheese cloth to filter out the pulp squeeze the rest of the juices out and set it aside for further use in cooking or composting. I store my hemp milk in clean mason jars with the lids closed tightly and will keep for about a week.
NOTES:
Use more water to get a skim milk consistency you can also use less water to produce a heavier cream consistency.

I choose not to flavor my hemp milk since we use it in cooking but you can add vanilla extract or cocoa to the blend to make a flavored hemp milk.
The pulp that I mentioned earlier can be used as a toppings added to a salad and much more. If you dont wish to eat the seeds toss them into you compost pile^-^
