There is almond butter and cashew butter and coconut butter and peanut butter. There is almond milk and cashew milk and coconut milk, so why not peanut milk?
Raw peanuts are hard to find, and raw peanut butter is even harder to find. But they can be ordered online of course. As for the peanut butter, you will probably have to make your own. I came across some supposedly raw peanuts on a recent grocery excursion, so I trusted the label and bought them.
Are they truly raw? I don’t know. Are the raw almonds or cashews on the shelves truly raw? I still don’t know. I could be being extremely naive, and the truth is that they have all been pasteurized for safety reasons. There are lots of mysteries when it comes to our food supply, and those are not in my control. But I’ve got to eat something, and I choose this phenomenal milkshake. If you are concerned about the rawness of your nuts, than you can order raw jungle peanuts. If you want a milkshake that is undoubtedly raw, then use raw sprouted almonds from this trusty source instead. But the peanut milk does make for a fun new flavor.
