Equipment

  • Blender
  • Nut milk bag

Ingredients

  • 1 cup raw almonds
  • 3 cups water, plus extra for soaking
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Place the almonds into a medium bowl and cover them with a couple of inches of water.
  • Allow the almonds to soak overnight, for 8 to 12 hours.
  • Drain the almonds and rinse them.
  • Place the almonds into a blender with 3 cups of water.
  • Blend until the almonds are very finely chopped and the liquid looks milky. I recommend letting the blender run for 1 to 2 minutes to achieve this.
  • Gather a bowl or wide-mouthed pitcher and place a nut milk bag inside with the opening facing upwards and as wide open as you can get it.
  • Carefully pour the almond mixture into the bag.
  • Allow the liquid to drain through the bag, then squeeze the bag to extract any excess liquid from the blended almonds.
  • Use your almond milk immediately, or transfer it to a sealed container and refrigerate for up to 5 days.
