Why should you consider making your own nut mylks?
Ditch the dairy
Cow’s milk has significant levels of female hormones, and usually contains antibiotics, pesticides, saturated fat, and cholesterol — substances that definitely do NOT do a body good! Do you know that up to 65% of human population has trouble digesting lactose (dairy products), in fact East Asian people 90% of the population is lactose intolerant, which can cause gas, abdominal cramps and gastrointestinal distress. Raw nut mylk is truly a great alternative to get your source of nutrients such as calcium, Vitamin E, Vitamin A, Vitamin D and lots other minerals needed for our body.
Clean Ingredients
Pure Almond Mylk
Ingredients
For about one liter use:
- 1.5 cup raw organic almonds- pre soak in cold filtered water for 8-12 hours
- 6 cups of clean filtered water
- pinch of Himalayan salt
Optional:
- 2-4 dates
- vanilla extract
Instructions
- Drain the almonds and discard the soaking water. Once soaked and drained peel the almonds- basically all you need to do is press on the almonds with your fingers and the skin will come off easily.
- Rinse the peeled almonds under cold water and place in a good blender. Add 6 cups of cold water you are comfortable drinking (spring or filtered) and a pinch of salt. Optional you can also add 2-4 dates depending on how sweet you like it, and vanilla extract.
- Blend on high for about 60 sec.
- Use a nut milk bag to place the blended almond mix in and squeeze all the liquid out to a bowl. I use 100% natural hemp milk bag by P&F HIGH QUALITY PRODUCTS
- Store in glass bottle in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.
- Shake or stir before using.
