The Naked Mango juice and almost all commercial juices unfortunately are not allowed due to the possibility of undisclosed ingredients which are allowed under labeling laws. Nut milk is delicious and easy to make: I think anyoone who previously had rice milk would transition to it well. NUT MILK by Marjan 100 grams of whole blanched hazelnuts, almonds or pecans (gives brownish milk) 1 litre of water a small pinch of salt optional: 1 tbsp of clear honey Put ingredients in blender and spin for about 10 minutes. Pour through a fine sieve. Squeeze out residue with the back of a spoon or squeeze out in a tea towel. Freeze residue (this is in fact very fine nut flour) and use for baking purposes. Store in the fridge. Use within 2-3 days. Carol F. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 How about coconut milk made with extra water? That will thin it down to the consistency of rice milk. (I'd put 2-3 times the amount of hot water called for.) (The recipe can be found on pecanbread.com) http://www.pecanbread.com/recipes.html After you have strained the coconut pieces out, put the warm coconut milk back into the blender and add honey until it is as sweet as the rice milk. You can gradually put less and less honey in later. Rice milk is SUPER sweet tasting and I think you'll have to make the coconut milk equally sweet in order for her to accept it.
