This Peanut Punch is very kid-friendly and tasty that even the pickiest of eaters will definitely love it. Use freshly roasted peanuts without added salt.
This rich and creamy drink will definitely be a hit, it reminds me so much of home when my mom would grow peanut in the garden and roast them, they were such a delicious treat. To this day peanut is a family favorite of ours, I include peanut as a flavor in my recipes, Vegan Peanut Butter Pie, Peanut Noodles Recipe, Maca Peanut Butter Smoothie.

Vegan Peanut Punch
Traditional peanut punch is made with condensed milk, to make a vegan version of peanut punch I substituted it with coconut milk and sweetener. Normally freshly roasted peanuts are used, the peanut is blended with water then strained. The pulp is discarded are given to feed chickens.
I have seen peanut punch recipes that included oats, Angostura Bitters, Irish moss, and alcohol but my recipe is very simple, kid-friendly, and easy to prepare using pantry staples. Feel free to substitute the maple syrup with your favorite sweetener whether it be cane sugar, coconut sugar, agave, etc.
Last-minute, I decided to add a banana to make it even more rich and creamy and it was so yummy.

Tips For Making Peanut Punch
- How to make a peanut punch using peanut butter? Substitute 1/2 cup peanut butter for the peanuts.
- If you use a regular blender, you might need to first blend the peanuts with the water then strain through a cheesecloth or fine-mesh sieve, discard pulp. Then add the remaining ingredients and blend until smooth. No need to do this if you are using a high-speed blender.
- Substitute almond milk for coconut milk for a lower-calorie peanut punch.
