Directions:Golden Chai Latte
Cashew Milk
Cover the cashews in water and soak them overnight or for at least 2 hours.
Drain and discard the soaking liquid.
In a high speed blender, add 2½ cups of water, soaked cashews, vanilla extract and dates.
Whirl away until cashew milk is creamy and smooth.
Filter cashew milk (using a nut milk bag or strainer) into an airtight container. Store in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Golden Chai Latte
Pour water and 2 cups of cashew milk (reserve the other ½ cup) in a medium-sized pot and warm over medium heat.
Place loose leaf chai in a tea strainer and add to the milk/water mixture. Add spices and bring to a light boil. Remove pot from heat before liquid fully boils.
Allow pot to cool for about 5 minutes, and then remove the tea strainer. Stir in maple syrup.
Pour golden chai tea into a glass and froth (or simply pour) ½ cup of cashew milk atop. Sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg.
Reishi Chocolate Latte
In a small pot gently heat almond milk until simmering point.
Place the rest of the ingredients into blender, add warm almond milk and blend until frothy.
If you don't want to use the blender, add all of the ingredients into the pot with warmed almond milk and whisk until combined. Enjoy right away.
Chaga Chai
Powder chaga and roots in a coffee grinder or blender. Place in a glass jar and add spices and stir well. Top with a lid and store in a cool, dry place.
To brew a cup, boil 1 1/2 cups of water in a small pot. Add roughly 1/2-1 tsp of your Chaga Chai blend and simmer on low for 15 minutes, then add 1 cup of milk (I like unsweetened almond milk).
Simmer for a for roughly 5 more minutes. Remove from heat and add sweetener, Andrew likes raw honey, I've been using a pinch of stevia. ENJOY!

Turmeric Hot Chocolate
Directions
Gently warm the almond milk in a medium sized pot on the stove, but be careful not to bring it to a boil. Start on medium low heat and then lower it once it starts to warm up.
Add the cacao powder, turmeric, cinnamon, maple syrup, coconut oil and vanilla extract and whisk until the powders dissolve.
Once it's heated through, which should only take a few minutes, add the coconut cream and whisk until it starts to melt down.
Pour the entire mixture into a blender and quickly blend everything together until the powders are fully dissolved and you have a nice, frothy drink.
