The Sweetheart of Nut Milks: Meet ButtaNutt’s New Unsweetened Cashew Nut Milk
After years of working as an Editor and writer for…
When it comes to nut milks, no one does it better than local champion ButtaNutt. Fans of the brand go wild for its range of delicious nut milks that keep it simple with no nasties and ingredients lists that even a 5 year old can read and make sense of. The latest darling in the ButtaNutt lineup, Unsweetened Cashew Nut Milk joins the trusted product lineup as the sweetheart of nut milks.
Ready to shake up the alternative milk world, ButtaNutt Unsweetened Cashew Nut Milk is delightfully creamy with a moreish earthiness and a velvety flair. It’s unsweetened (because honestly, it’s sweet enough all on its own) and is ideal for adding a luxurious touch to tropical dishes, hot beverages, or simply enjoyed cold over ice for a moment of calm.
I love this milk because it contains a fair concentration of cashews (4%) and it doesn’t contain added seed or vegetable oils like many other alternative milk products on the market. If you’re trying your best to avoid added oils and sugars then this will be a great option for your morning cuppa. It compliments coffee well and pairs beautifully with rooibos tea.

Thanks to its sweetness and neutral colour, cashew nut milk is often described as being the closest dairy-free alternative to cow’s milk. Cashew milk has a very similar mouth feel to that of dairy milk too. Many nut milk lovers describe cashew nut milk as having the most neutral taste when compared to other nut milks, so if you’re after something that tastes and looks a lot like cow’s milk you may have found a winner in the new ButtaNutt Unsweetened Cashew Nut Milk.
Cashew milk is incredibly versatile. From soups to sauces, smoothies to coffee, this nut milk can be a hero in so many dishes. For example, cream in sauces can easily be replaced by cashew milk and you can even use it as the base for homemade “Nice Cream”. When the weather turns, you can swap cashew milk for vegetable or chicken stock in your soup recipes for a richer, creamier texture.
I’ve also been enjoying this creamy delight alongside ButtaNutt Gluten-free Almond Macadamia Granola, the Cashew Nut Milk adds a delightful extra sweetness to the granola while complementing the natural sweetness of the honey and earthy oats in the granola. It’s a morning combo I can get used to!
ButtaNutt Unsweetened Cashew 1L is now available at a retail price of R34.95.
