Ingredients

1 1/2 cups raw almonds

1 cup each of raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries

1 cup raw cashews

1/2 block of silken tofu

1 cup rice milk

2 tbsp agave nectar

1 tsp vanilla

1 cup blackberry brandy

1/4 cup hemp seeds


Method:

Soak almonds in enough water to cover for 24 hours. After that amount of time you can slip the skins right off the almonds but be careful, they?ll jump right away from you and are slippery. After you have them peeled soak overnight again in blackberry brandy and water enough to cover again. Combine tofu, cashews, agave, and vanilla in a blender. Add enough of the rice milk to keep the mix going but you may not need the whole cup. This is vegan whip cream. Pulse the almonds in a food processor until they are broken up a bit but some whole almonds are ok. Place a tbsp of almonds in the bottom of a martini glass then a dollop of the cream. Then add a layer of each color berry. Then add another dollop of cream and a sprinkle of hemp seeds.
