Almond Milk

I treated myself to a blender and am now enjoying almond milk several times a week. This is Dela's recipe:

• Soak 2 handful of raw almonds over night or at least for 8 hours
• Put them in the blender with a little bit of water. There should be more almonds than water in the blender.
• Blend.
• Add water. I fill up the whole blender. That's a good amount for two people.
• Add a little bit of maple syrup.
• Strain it through a strainer or cheese cloth - the remainder can be used for skin care, baking or just compost it.
  

Today I also added some vanilla, and I have tried carob powder or berries before too. A hint of maple syrup is a must. Delicious!

Great frothy snack - that's also good for your health, because it's alkaline forming.


That's what it looks like when you first blend it. Leave it at this stage for a while, before adding the rest of the water.
