Servings: 5

Ingredients

  • ½ cup raw almonds
  • 2 Medjool dates
  • 5 cups water
  • pinch salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract optional
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg or cinnamon (optional
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Soak the almonds in water overnight (or for 3 hours prior) if possible. Discard water.
  • Add the dates, almonds, and half of the water into the Vitamix blender. Blend on high for 30 seconds.
  • Add the remaining water and a pinch of salt. Optional to add vanilla extract, nutmeg, and/or cinnamon if desired. Blend on high for 1 minute.
  • Strain with a cotton cloth fabric. Pour into an airtight carafe.

Notes

  1. Use raw almonds.
  2. Optional to substitute agave or honey in lieu of dates.
  3. My favorite blender is a Vitamix blender.
  4. Storage: Store almond milk in a container in the fridge for 3 to 5 days. The almond milk may separate, so shake before use. Freeze almond milk in a freezer-friendly container for up to 6 months.
