How To Make Almond Milk
Today I’m going to teach you how to make almond milk at home! It’s extremely simple and requires only 1 simple ingredient (almonds!). I’m sharing tips on how to make it faster if you forget to soak your almonds overnight, plus how to make it without a cheesecloth. You’ll love how easy it is to make healthy, homemade almond milk right in your own kitchen!
Ingredients
- 1 cup raw almonds
- 4o oz filtered water
Instructions
- Start by soaking 1 cup of raw almonds overnight covered in water. If you forget to start your soaking the night before, read below for how to make it faster.
- After 6+ hours of soaking, drain and rinse the almonds with water. Add 40oz of filtered water to a high speed blender with the almonds.
- Blend on high for 30-60 seconds, until creamy.
- Pour the almond milk through a cheesecloth or an old tea towel placed on a stainer over a bowl. Both work great for straining!
- Squeeze out all the liquid from the pulp and your almond milk is done! Store in the fridge for 3-4 days.
Notes
Here’s how to make it faster without soaking the almonds overnight.
Bring water to a boil, and pour the boiled water over the almonds to soak for 1-2 hour. This will soften the almonds faster than soaking in room temperature water.
