Make your own rice milk

Making your own rice milk is super easy and inexpensive. When trying to avoid dairy it can be quite confusing on where to start and what to do. With all the new research emerging about soy milk  I would avoid it at all costs. Soy can cause hormone related risks and unless prepared properly is dangerous to the body. 

Rice is not high in protein so should not substitute soy or dairy for its protein content. Its a light refreshing drink that can be added to smoothies, porridge or drunk on its own. 

What to do

Rince 1 cup of rice
Put the rice into a blender
Add 2 cups of water and vanilla extract
Blend till smooth
Strain through a muslin cloth
And it's ready drink!


If you want to flavour it you can add a banana or some agave nectar for sweetness but I think it is sweet enough on its own.
