Raw Vegan Eggnog

Now that the days are getting a lot colder, I’ve been craving warming drinks and creamy shakes like this raw vegan eggnog. It’s super comforting, really rich and creamy, and it doesn’t contain any eggs, refined sugars or dairy milk. I like to make it with tons of warming spices like cinnamon, turmeric, nutmeg and black pepper. Perfect for a holiday party or cozy winter night!
