Raw Almond Milk Recipe
Ingredients
Two main ingredients:
- 3-4 cups pure water
- 1 cup almonds soaked 8 hours (overnight) and rinsed thoroughly (also you can use a raw almond paste or raw almond butter instead of whole raw almonds).
The rest of the ingredients are optional, but it might taste better with:
- 1-2 dates (if you like a little sweet milk)
- pinch sea salt (not necessary, but a pinch of salt triggers sensors and makes your dessert taste even sweeter)
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin coconut oil (only if you want to add some healthy fat)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla (optional)
- 1 teaspoon organic sunflower lecithin to emulsify (optional, for people who want to keep milk a couple days and don’t like to shake it every time). Lecithin is used as a stabilizer to keep the almond milk emulsified (i.e. keep it the same consistency throughout).
- 1 teaspoon of lemon juice, it will act as a natural preservative. You should be able to store the milk 3-5 days in your refrigerator.
ASSEMBLY:
Blend ingredients and strain through a chinois, nut milk bag or a cheesecloth-lined strainer. I like to strain my milk through a very fine double grain stainless strainer, but my son prefers to use nut milk bag 😉
For Chocolate: Add ¼ cup raw cacao powder and 1 tablespoon your favorite natural sweetener.
For Strawberry: Add 1 cup strawberries, fresh or frozen. Strain if desired.
