In this post, we will show you how to prepare almond milk at home easily and quickly. This recipe is healthy and delicious, and it will allow you to control the ingredients and ensure that the milk you are consuming is of a high quality and without preservatives or harmful ingredients. By making your own almond milk at home, you can enjoy a fresh and natural product without having to rely on commercial brands. Read on for the steps and ingredients needed!
Equipment you will need:
Food processor or high powered blender
Fine mesh
Container with lid to store milk
The ingredients you will need are:
1 cup of raw almonds soaked for at least 8 hours in a cup of water
8 cups of filtered water
Optionally, you can add a pinch of sea salt, vanilla and sweetener of preference. We use 3 pitted Medjool dates, but you can also use agave, date syrup, or coconut sugar to sweeten the milk.
Once you have all your ingredients, follow these steps to make your own almond milk at home:
Drain and rinse the soaked almonds.
Place the almonds and water in a blender and process until completely crushed. If you are going to use dates, you can put it in the blender with the almonds and the water.
Strain the mixture through a fine mesh to remove any almond pieces.
If you are going to use any other sweetener, this is the time to do it to your liking.
Serve the milk fresh or store it in a covered container in the fridge for about 7 days.
And that's it! Now you have your own almond milk at home, gluten-free and without refined sugar. This milk is perfect to use in coffee, desserts or cooking and is a healthy and sustainable option to replace cow's milk. Enjoy your own homemade vegetable milk!
