Ingredients
1 cup raw almonds
4 cups filtered water
2 teaspoons vanilla bean powder (or 1 tablespoon vanilla extract)
2 tablespoons agave nectar
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Soak the almonds in a jar with water overnight. If you forget to soak overnight, soak for 1 – 2 hours in very hot water.
When you’re ready to make the almond milk, drain the water and discard it.
Rinse the almonds and place them in a high powdered blender.
Add the fresh, filtered water, the vanilla bean powder, agave nectar (honey or maple syrup works too) and sea salt to the blender.
Blend it for about 1 minute until completely combined.
Place a nut milk bag or cheese cloth in a bowl or pitcher, gathering the edges so you can squeeze the liquid through the cloth.
Pour the almond milk through a nut milk bag or cheese cloth and squeeze it to strain the liquid out, leaving the pulp behind in the cloth.
Transfer to a jar with a lid or pitcher.
Store the milk in the fridge and enjoy!!
