Homemade Almond Milk Recipe



image: www/fb.com/getinvolvedyoulivehere
Almond milk is easy, and requires only 3 ingredients (and only 2 if you want just plain almond milk!)

Ingredients:
- 1 cup fresh (un-roasted, raw) almonds
- water for soaking almonds
- 3 cups water
- 1/2 tsp. fresh vanilla bean (optional - this will make it have a hint of vanilla flavoring)
- 2 dates, (optional - this will make your almond milk taste slightly sweet, which most conventional almond milks taste like)

Directions:
1. Soak almonds overnight for at least 6 hours
2. Drain water from almonds and discard
3. Stick almonds, 3 cups water, vanilla, and dates into high speed blender (recommend to use the vitamix or blendtec), and blend until smooth
4. Strain blended almond milk using a cheesecloth, nut milk bag, or other strainer
5. Fresh almond milk will keep for 4-5 days in the fridge
