Vegan Yogurt Alternative with Raw Cashews, Coconut milk, and Citric Acid plus starter

This is a much better vegan yogurt alternative I have tried to make so far. Thanks to Melanie McDonald (Mel) whose recipe inspired me. https://avirtualvegan.com/vegan-yogurt-recipe/comment-page-4/?unapproved=145622&moderation-hash=95982865ab72ab32725b6937fcee3781#comment-145622

Because I didn't use light coconut milk it came to be natural Greek yogurt texture. So there is no need to strain. It's delicious.

Ingredients: 

1.50 cup, (13.5 oz Coconut Milk Dairy Free Milk Alternative, (if you like thinner consistency use the lighter coconut milk) I like thicker. 

1 cup, Raw Cashews, 2 tbsp(s), 

2 Tablespoons Yogurt alternative as a starter, I used silk almonds, and 0.50 tsp, Citric Acid (if you like tangy add about a half to 1 teaspoon of Citric acid)

2 tablespoons, Maple syrup (this adds a taste).

Method: 

1. Soak raw cashews overnight or in warm water for at least 30 min. 

2. Drain the soaked cashews, put them in a sieve, and run/rinse through cold water.

3. Put the drained, rinsed cashews in a blender, add the coconut milk, the non-dairy yogurt alternative with live cultures (almost all have it), 2 tablespoons of 100% pure maple syrup, and half a teaspoon of citric acid.

4. Mix everything in a blender to a smooth consistency, transfer to a glass jar or clay pot (it makes like 3 cups), and keep it in a warmer place. In the bitter cold days of January, I put it next to the space heater at 73F for overnight. When you see it solidified, put it in the refrigerator for a couple of hours. Enjoy!
