Have you ever had Pistachio Milk before?? Prior to making this, I never had, but I had a large bag of pistachios that needed to be put to use, and what a pleasant surprise it was turning them into milk! It turned out very smooth and creamy with a slight hint of pistachio flavor. Yum!

Pistachio milk makes a fun alternative to dairy milk or your basic nut milks (almond/cashew). You can used for many things like you would with a typical nut milk. I really enjoyed it in my coffee as “creamer”.

And let me tell you just how simple it is to make! You only need a few ingredients:

  • raw shelled pistachios
  • filtered water
  • vanilla extract
  • maple syrup
  • sea salt

You will also need a nut bag/cheese cloth to strain your nut milk with and a high speed blender.

I really hope you get a chance to try this recipe! If you do, please comment below or tag me on Instagram at #healthymommamanda.
