Article Draft
Peanut milk is a plant milk created using peanuts and water. Peanuts are ground, soaked, sometimes heated, and then filtered through a fine filter: the resulting liquid is milky. Recipe variations include salt, sweeteners, and grains.
History
The earliest known production of peanut milk was by the Incas in the 17th century. Almeda Lambert published a recipe for it in 1899 and its use was promoted by George Washington Carver from 1919.[1][2]

Nutritional Consumption
