Vegan Egg Nog recipe | Healthy and Low Cal

                                              Vegan Egg Nog | Healthy and Low Cal

                           Today on Project Health, we are making a vegan egg nog! Nothing says holidays like a nice glass of egg nog, Right? If you are an egg nog lover, which I am assuming you are since you are looking at this recipe (duh), then you may be familiar with the not so appealing calories that go along with this beloved treat. The average egg nog contains about 223 calories for just one cup! And also filled with bad fats.
This recipe is not only less calories, but it actually contains those good fats that you know, are naturally good for us.
 It's extremely easy to make and only a few ingredients are needed.


Here what you need

2 ¼  cups almond milk or any nut milk you wish 
1/2 cup raw cashew butter
1/3  cup maple syrup or agave nectar (I used agave nectar)
1 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp cinnamon
Pinch of ground clove (less than 1/8 tsp)


So, now here is the hard part, you put everything into the blender and blend. Yes.
For a little added fun, add 2 tbsp bourbon or dark rum—extra kick is always fun!

I hope you all enjoy this little holiday classic! 

Thank you for reading!
