a sweet healthy nut milk with no added sweeteners! it's not water based, for those of you avoiding that nasty deuterium oxide ;) this "milk" is very low in saturated fat (depending on the type of nut you use), cholesterol and sodium. it's also a good source of potassium, and a VERY good source of dietary fiber and vitamin C. it has a creamy white, milky consistency, with just a hint of earth. makes for an exotic substitute!
