Place the cashew nuts in a bowl and cover them with water. Let them soak for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Drain and rinse the soaked cashew nuts under cold water.
In a blender, combine the drained cashew nuts and coconut milk. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Add the fresh mint leaves, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt to the blender. Blend again until the mint is thoroughly incorporated and the mixture is green and smooth.
