How many calories are in cashew milk?
USDA FoodData Central has no generic cashew milk entry, only brand labels. Three examples, each for about one cup:
| Product (USDA branded entry) | Serving | kcal | Fat | Sugar | Protein |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Silk Unsweetened Vanilla Cashew Milk | 240 g | 25 | not listed | not listed | not listed |
| Rockview unsweetened cashew beverage | 1 cup (240 mL) | 41 | 3 g | 1 g | 1 g |
| Organic cashew milk with coconut nectar | 1 cup (227 g) | 179 | 12 g | 6 g | 5 g |
Does cashew milk have calcium?
It depends on the brand. The Rockview label lists 377 mg calcium per cup, and its ingredients include added calcium phosphate. The organic product, which lists no added calcium, shows 20 mg.
Is cashew milk fattening?
The unsweetened products above hold 25 to 41 kcal per cup, so they are low in calories. The sweetened organic one has 179 kcal per cup. Whether any drink adds weight depends on your whole diet; ask a doctor or dietitian if you need advice.
Why do brands differ so much?
Raw cashews contain 553 kcal per 100 g (USDA SR Legacy), but cashew milk is mostly water, and makers use different amounts of nuts, sweetener and added vitamins. We found no official source on health benefits of cashew milk, so we make no such claims.
