How to Make Fresh Almond Milk at Home | Westman Atelier
Almond milk plays a starring role in makeup artist Gucci Westman's plant-based diet, where it turns up in coffee, shakes, and smoothies. Here, she shares her favorite simple recipe—which doubles as a fun weekend activity! INGREDIENTS: - 4 cups of distilled or filtered water - 1 cup of raw organic almonds - 1 date - pitted - 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract - 1 teaspoon of cinnamon DIRECTIONS: - Soak raw almonds overnight in cool water with a pinch of salt. - Drain and peel husks off of almonds. - Fill blender with 4 cups of filtered water and add shelled almonds. Blend on high for 5 minutes. - Strain liquid through a nut back or a thin dish towel into a mixing bowl. Discard any pulp. - Pour liquid back into blender and add date, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Blend on high for 1 minute. - Transfer almond milk into a covered bottle. - Enjoy! Will keep for 4-5 days. Shake well before drinking.
