TEAPOT ALMOND MILK // super easy

Ingredients:

1 cup of almonds

3 – 4 cups (or 1 liter) of fresh water

HOW TO

  1. Soak almonds overnight (or 8 – 24 hours).

  2. Rinse and drain.

  3. Blend in a high speed blender with desired amount of drinking water for 1-4 minutes.

  4. Pour the mixture into a teapot with strainer and use a spoon to drain the liquid out of the pulp*.

  5. Store in a sterile glass jar/bottle in the fridge for up to 4 days.

    Optional:

    + 1/4 tsp Vanilla powder = flavor

    + 1 pitted Medjool date = sweetness

Notes

*You can use a nut-milk bag or cheesecloth instead. Wash your hands well, then squeeze liquid from the pulp.

Fun Facts

– When you soak the almonds, the protein inhibitor is released and it becomes much easier for us to digest and absorb their nutrients.

– Many other kinds of nuts and seeds can be used instead of or in combination with almonds.

– I like making hemp milk because you don’t have to soak the seeds. So it’s good to make when you need some milk right away.

– I keep a jar in my freezer that I keep adding the pulp to so I can use in pancakes, cakes, smoothies etc.
