INGREDIENTS
Soak 1 cup of raw almond for 4 hrs or overnight
Drain water and rinse
Combine nuts with 3 cups water in a high speed blender ( like a vita mix)
Add in 2-3 dates depending on sweetness desired (optional)
¼ tsp vanilla extract
METHOD
Blend at high speed for 1-2 minutes
Pour liquid through a nut milk bag ( can purchase on Amazon)
You may have to give a bit of help encouraging the liquid out of the bag…
Store in a glass jar in the refrigerator.
Enjoy
TIP: If you want your almond milk not to separate in your tea/ coffee or in the fridge here is a trick...
Pour the almond milk into the pot, partially cover and under low heat simmer for 15 minutes.
Keep a close eye on it as it may boil over. Stir now and then.
Allow to cool before storing in the refrigerator. The almond milk will keep fresh in the refrigerator for 5 days.
