For a thicker, creamier milk, reduce the amount of water used. This will result in a consistency closer to that of heavy cream, ideal for enriching sauces or desserts. Store your homemade flax seed milk in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Consider adding a touch of sweetener, such as maple syrup or dates, or a pinch of vanilla extract for added flavor.
