Homemade Almond Milk is creamy and delicious and so much tastier than the store-bought version. Enjoy a peace of mind knowing it is 100% natural. No unknown or unwanted ingredients!

Almond Milk can be used as a dairy alternative. It can be included in any recipe that calls for milk. For instance, use it in Oatmeal, Overnight Oats, or Protein Shakes.

Description

This homemade Almond Milk recipe has two main ingredients, water and almonds. The rest of the ingredients are completely optional; however, I added them here to share how I prefer to make almond milk at home. This recipe might just become your new personal favorite! 

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Blend
    • Add to a blender/food processor the soaked almonds, cool/cold water, sea salt, and date.
    • Blend (about 2 minutes) until creamy and smooth.
  2. Strain
    • Strain nut milk using a nut milk bag.
    • Pour the blended almond milk into the milk bag.
    • Twist the top of bag to prevent overflow whilst milking.
    • Start squeezing from the top to bottom until all of the liquid from the pulp has been extracted. 
    • Discard pulp and wash milk bag, hang to dry.
  3. Store
    • Transfer milk to a mason jar or milk bottle and refrigerate. Milk will keep for up to 4-5 days. It will naturally separate to some extent so shake well before using!

Note

  • Depending on the size of the blender, this can be done in two batches.
  • Recipe can also be doubled.
  • Wash hands with dish soap to remove natural oil from hands before squeezing milk bag.
