Diarrhea-Soothing Coconut-Cashew Milk

This creamy, coconut-cashew milk is a soothing elixir for your digestive system. It's easy to make in a blender with just a few simple ingredients, and it's a great way to hydrate and replenish electrolytes when you're feeling under the weather.

I first discovered this recipe when I was traveling in Southeast Asia. I was suffering from a bout of food poisoning, and a local woman recommended that I try drinking coconut milk to help soothe my stomach. I was skeptical at first, but I was desperate, so I gave it a try. To my surprise, the coconut milk actually helped to relieve my symptoms. I was so impressed that I started to experiment with different ways to make coconut milk at home. I finally settled on this recipe, which is the perfect balance of creaminess, sweetness, and spice.
