How to make Almond Milk






















Almond Milk

1 c soaked almonds
4 c water
1/4 c agave nectar (optional)
Pinch of sea salt

Blend soaked almonds and water until thoroughly blended. Strain the milk through a nut bag into a large bowl.

Rinse the blender cup and put strained milk back in with agave nectar and sea salt. Blend.

Author's notes: I am not a fan of cow's milk. I have never like it, and probably never will. I can't wrap my brain around drinking milk from a cow. Strange to me. I think cow's milk is suppose to be for a cow's baby not humans. But hay, that's just me.

I do love almond milk and as you can see so does Sous Chef D.

Here's a great article on raw nut milks.

i heart almond milk! i agree, cow's milk is for calves, that is all..

oh, also, what a healthy and happy looking child you have! :~) if anyone needs convincing to try raw food, all they need is to look at that picture to see the benefits to be derived from such a balanced lifestyle.

cheers!
