Serves 4.
½ cup raw cashews
1 ½ cups water
½ cup maple syrup (amount can be reduced to taste)
½ teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon alcohol free vanilla extract
1 ½ Tablespoons instant (minute) tapioca (I use Let’s Do Organic brand Granulated Tapioca)
Place the cashews in a blender or food processor and process until powdered. Add water and process again until mixture becomes a smooth, milk like consistency. Add the maple syrup, sea salt, and vanilla. Process until well blended.
Pour cashew mixture into a medium saucepan, add tapioca, and whisk to blend. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, constantly stirring with a whisk. Reduce heat to low, and simmer until thickened and the tapioca balls look transparent.
Pour into ramekins and refrigerate until cool. Garnish with fresh berries and mint leaves.
Enjoy!
