Why hemp milk ?
Hemp milk is a powerhouse of nutrition and slightly nutty in taste.
Made from hulled hemp seeds, it’s rich in all nine essential amino acids, omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, magnesium, and zinc. These nutrients are vital for energy, recovery, and hormone balance, so it is a great way to add them easily through this recipe.
And yes, hemp belongs to the same plant family as cannabis, but don’t worry, hemp seeds contain no THC (the compound responsible for psychoactive effects).
It’s simply one of the cleanest, most sustainable, and most nourishing plant milks you can make.
Not a fan of the flavor, try berry hemp milk or adjust ratio !
Berry milk
If you’re not a fan of the natural hemp flavor, here’s a delicious twist for you :

It’s naturally pink, refreshing, and perfect for kids or anyone who prefers a fruity touch. You won’t notice the hemp seeds anymore !
Adjust ratio
Also, you can easily adjust the ratio of hemp seeds to water to suit your taste :
Use more water for a lighter milk or more hemp seeds for a creamier one.
It’s that simple to make this star plant milk truly your own!
How to use it?
- Pour over your morning granola or overnight oats,
- Blend into your favorite smoothie or smoothie bowl,
- Make a creamy matcha or superfood latte,

Top Tip
Hemp has been cultivated for thousands of years as one of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet.
There are three main types you’ll find:
- Hemp flour : made from ground hemp seeds (great for baking)
- Unhulled hemp seeds : with the shell, ideal for salads and crunch
- Hulled hemp seeds : soft, creamy, and perfect for milk
Hemp seeds are one of the rare complete plant proteins, containing all 9 amino acids. This makes them an incredible ally for vegetarians and vegans. They also offer a balanced omega-3 to omega-6 ratio, essential for healthy skin, brain, and hormone support.
