Hazelnut milk is one of my favorite nut milks. It’s full of vitamin E, which is great for tissue and skin.
Hazelnuts are also rich in the minerals magnesium, phosphorous, zinc, copper, iron, manganese, calcium, and selenium.
Hazelnuts are also rich in vitamins K, folate, thiamin, and niacin.
My favorite nut milk bag is Ellie’s Best Bigger Better Nut Milk Bag, which can be found on Amazon.com.
