The Best Nut Bags on Amazon

Senior Staff Writer

Getting ahold of delicious almond or cashew milk is much harder than it should be. Store-bought brands often fail to capture its smooth and rich charms. That, or they cost way too much. In other words, if you want to start enjoying great nut-based milk on a daily basis, then you should probably just make it yourself. To do it, though, you’ll want to buy a nut bag.

Despite the unappealing name, the nut bag is a vital and reusable tool. It’s a finely meshed sack, usually made of nylon, that’ll you’ll use to strain crushed nut particles out of your blended raw milk. Once the milk has passed through the bag, you’re left with creamy nut milk that can be poured over cereal, put in your coffee or enjoyed on its own.

So if you’re ready to start making your own almond or cashew milk but want to make sure that it tastes like the genuine article, then you’re going to want to get yourself a nut bag. Here are four of the best to choose from.

Ballamei’s three-pack is a particularly cost-conscious option for someone who’s curious about making their own nut milk. But just because these bags won’t break the bank doesn’t mean they’re not of the utmost quality. Each sack—the set includes small (8″ x 12”), medium (10″ x 12”) and large (13″ x 13″) sizes—is made from flexible, fine Italian nylon mesh. They’re also all re-washable and durable, so you won’t need to order multiple sets, even though you could easily afford to.

Pros: A low-priced set of nut bags that will last.

Cons: Not everyone will find the different sizes useful.

Bellamei Nut Milke Bag Three-Pack: $7.49

Scengclos’s set of nut milk bags is perfect for someone who wants a little versatility from their sacks. While all nut bags can be used for more than just straining raw milk, this pack of three—which includes small (8″ x 10”), medium (10″ x 12”) and large (14″x14″) sizes—is made from tightly woven cheesecloth. Thanks to this dense-yet-breathable fabric, you can also use the bag for making cheese and natural fruit and vegetable juices.

Pros: A nut bag that can be used for much more than just straining raw milk.

Cons: While denser than most cheesecloth, it’s still less weighty than nylon mesh.
