Almond Milk Ingredients, Variations, and How-to-Guide

 Ingredients

Unsweetened:

• 1 cup almonds (soak for at least 8 hours)
• 32 oz water
• 2 tbsp organic vanilla flavoring (optional)

If you would like it sweetened, give one of these a try:

• 3 tbsps organic pure maple syrup
• 3 tbsp Stevia
• A few medjool dates
• Raw Honey

Additional Variations

• 20-30 peanuts to make peanut-almond milk (my personal favorite for smoothies)

• 20-30 blueberries to make blueberry-almond milk

• (this was actually pretty tasty even though it sounds weird)
• In addition, ½-1 Banana
• (also tasty, and with the blueberries, it's really good)

• Try less water for a creamier almond milk

Instructions

• Soak almonds (and peanuts) in water for 8-12 hours

• strain water

• Blend everything chosen together for 2-3 minutes

• Blenders: 
• Magic Bullets and the Ninja are great and affordable options I personally use

• Strain the milk out with a cheesecloth or nylon bag and store in the fridge
• I like wide mouth Mason Jars, easy to strain in these and store away

Iced Almond Milk Latte Anyone?

Notes

• Good for 4-5 days 

• Shake before enjoying as separation is normal
