Fresh Almond Milk

Serve this nutritious nut milk chilled, as a refreshing beverage any time of the day or use it as a base for smoothies or even to lighten your morning coffee.

Ingredients

1/2 cup blanched almonds, without skins and not salted

3 cups water

3 tablespoons GOLDEN BLOSSOM HONEY

small drop of almond extract

dash of cinnamon or nutmeg, if desired

Honey Tips

Honey Never Spoils

No need to refrigerate it. It can be stored unopened, indefinitely, at room temperature in a dry cupboard.

Directions

Place almonds and water into a blender. Blend on high for 5 minutes. Strain through a fine sieve or cheesecloth to remove any almond particles. Pour milk into a medium saucepan, add honey and bring to a boil. Remove from heat to cool. Stir in almond extract. Refrigerate until very cold. (Milk thickens as it cools.)
To serve, pour desired amount into glass and dust with a little cinnamon or nutmeg.
