1. Start by soaking the raw cashews in a bowl with enough water to cover them. Let them soak for at least 2 hours or overnight if possible. Drain and rinse the cashews before use.
2. In a blender, combine the soaked cashews, pitted dates, 3 cups of filtered water, vanilla extract, and sea salt.
3. Blend on high speed for about 2-3 minutes until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
4. Strain the blended mixture using a nut milk bag or a fine cheesecloth over a large bowl or jug. Squeeze thoroughly to extract as much liquid as possible.
5. Pour the creamer into a clean, airtight container or a glass bottle.
6. Shake well before each use. Keep the creamer refrigerated and use within 5-7 days.
