How to Make Almond Milk - In 8 Easy Steps!

In this article I will show you how easy it is to make almond milk in your own kitchen!
Nut milk is a creamy delicious alternative to cows milk full of vitamin E and heart healthy fats! And it's really easy to make.
1. Measure out a cup of raw almonds and rinse them really well.
2. Soak them in water to cover in the refrigerator or overnight.
3. Rinse the soaked almonds really well.
4. Put them in the blender with 3 cups of cold filtered water.
5. Blend them in the blender for about 30 seconds.
6. Strain the mixture through a sprout bag/nut milk bag, strainer, or cheese cloth into a big bowl.
7. Pour the milk back into the blender pitcher.
8. Blend the milk with your sweetener of choice such as dates, honey, or stevia. You can also add other flavorings such as lemon peel, vanilla, cinnamon, chocolate, and carob powder.
Use the milk quickly as it will only last a few days in the fridge. Use it as a base for smoothies, soups, desserts, or just drink as is. Don't put it in your hot tea as it will separate but you can easily pour it into your ice tea or iced coffee.
The best smoothie is when you take a cup of the nut milk, two frozen bananas, and a teaspoon of vanilla extract. You can also freeze the vanilla banana smoothie and make popsicles for the kids.
