Cashew milk ranks 7th in our list of healthiest milk and milk alternatives for toddlers and kids. It is another nut-based milk that suffers from the issues of low fat and low protein, which don’t make it ideal for a toddler or young child’s diet. Cashew milk is a powerhouse when it comes to calcium, boasting about 50% more calcium than dairy milk. It’s also high in vitamins D and E. For the adventurous parents, homemade cashew milk retains the benefits of commercial cashew milk, but with much greater levels of calories, fat, protein, and carbs. So Delicious is one of the most popular brands of cashew milk.
