🥛 Why Make Plant Milk from Protein Powder?

Most store-bought plant milks are watered down, full of fillers, gums, and preservatives—and they often come in wasteful packaging. But when you make your own, you get a rich, nutritious drink with zero junk and zero waste.

And here’s the best part:
Purepress protein powders are actually better than whole nuts or seeds for making plant milk. Why?

  • They're already milled ultra-fine, so they blend smoothly

  • They’re de-oiled—which means a lighter, more refreshing milk

  • They’re packed with protein, fiber, and minerals like zinc, iron, and magnesium

  • No soaking or straining required (unless you want a smoother texture)

💚 Why Our Protein Powders Are Perfect for Plant Milk

Each of our powders is crafted in small batches on Vancouver Island using the cold-pressed leftovers of organic seeds and nuts. We mill them into a soft, flour-like powder with no additives - just clean, plant-based power.

Here’s what makes each one shine in your homemade milk:

🟢 Pumpkin Seed Protein Powder

Rich and nutty, this powder makes a pale green milk with earthy flavor and a mild creaminess. It’s ideal for smoothies, granola, or even savory soups.

🤍 Almond Protein Powder

Light, smooth, and subtly sweet. Almond protein powder creates a creamy, mild milk that’s great for coffee, cereal, baking, or sipping straight.

💚 Hemp Protein Powder

Naturally high in omega-3 and 6, hemp protein gives you a refreshing greenish milk with grassy notes - great in green smoothies or wellness drinks.

🥣 Basic Plant Milk Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 2 tablespoons Purepress Protein Powder (your choice)

  • 2–3 cups filtered water (less water = creamier)

  • Optional: 1–2 pitted dates, 1 tsp maple syrup, splash of vanilla, pinch of salt

Instructions:

  1. Add everything to a high-speed blender.

  2. Blend for 30–60 seconds until smooth.

  3. Optional: Strain through a nut milk bag or fine mesh sieve if you want extra-smooth texture.

  4. Store in the fridge for up to 3 days. Shake before use!

🥄 Pro Tips:

  • Use cold water for the best flavor.

  • Add cinnamon, cardamom, or cocoa for fun variations.

  • For creamier milk, use 2 cups water or add a spoonful of nut butter.

  • If you want zero straining, start with almond powder - it’s naturally smooth.

🌿 Why This Recipe Supports Zero Waste Living

By turning your protein powder into milk, you’re making the most out of the seeds and nuts already pressed for oil. No waste, no excess. Just one ingredient, used to the fullest.

Plus, you skip the cartons and plastics of store-bought drinks—your homemade milk goes straight into a reusable jar or bottle.
