Fresh Almond Milk
To take your morning and evening shakes to the next level and blend them with something other than water, Clean suggests that you use almond, rice, or hemp milk as a good alternative to dairy and soy based milks. And, since homemade always tastes better (and is more nutritious), we give you an easy (like, really really easy) almond milk recipe you can make yourself.
Soak the raw almonds in the 2 cups of water for 2-8 hours. (It’s easiest to let them soak overnight so they’re ready for your morning shake). Strain, rinse well, then add to blender with 3 cups of fresh water. Blend for 45 seconds, until the almonds are broken down.
Strain though a fine mesh strainer. (Save the pulp for other uses)
Store both pulp and milk in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
