My Favorite Nut Milk Recipe

Homemade nut milks are fast and easy-to-make. They are a perfect addition to your morning smoothie, afternoon tea, or even a dessert!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup raw (natural) Almonds, soaked

  • 3 to 4 cups of Purified Water

  • 1/8 tsp Ceylon Cinnamon

  • 1 Tbsp of Unrefined Coconut Oil

  • Dash of Sea Salt

Directions

Place almonds in a bowl and cover with filtered water and soak overnight or 6-8 hours. Discard water.

Add nuts, fresh filtered water being careful not to fill your blender past 3/4 full.  Add lid tightly and blend on high speed until nuts are completely broken down, usually 1-2 minutes. Strain with a nut milk bag (available online or at health food stores) into a jug or bowl.  If you don't have a nut milk bag, you can also use cheesecloth. Rinse the blender and add back the strained nut milk. Then add cinnamon, salt, and coconut oil with the nut milk.  Delicious!
