I've been making bean, seed and nut 'milks' for years. Kiwi often shares since they are safe for him being homemade and preservative free, but after all these years NEVER did I consider trying peanuts (human grade, unsalted of course)! I have no idea why either! OMG peanut milk is *the* tastiest drink I've had in a long time and Kiwi completely agrees. His little orange eyes went nuts when he tried it. Not sure about everyone else, but I love eating in a way that I can share with the green monster and not be concerned about it. Homemade peanut milk everyone:

1 cup peanuts
3 cups of water
2 pitted dates (optional, for added sweetness)
Pinch of sea salt (also optional, but neither me or Kiwi eat much food with added salt so I don't find a pinch is a problem)

Soak the peanuts overnight, then drain and rinse them well. Add to the blender with 3 cups of water and dates. Blend for 1 minute on medium speed (maybe longer if you don't have a high speed blender). Strain through a nut milk bag and voila! Delicious, creamy peanut milk:32:
