How to Make Almond Milk (Recipe Included!) + Almond Coffee Creamer at Home | Naturally Sweetened

Prepare the nut milk straining bag or a sieve lined with 2-3 layers of cheesecloth over a large bowl. Set aside.

Drain and rinse the soaked almonds thoroughly.

Add the almonds, soaked prunes, and 4 cups of filtered water to the carafe of a blender. Process for 2 minutes, until smooth and creamy.

Pour the mixture into the nut milk bag or the lined sieve, and let the almond milk begin to drain into the bowl. If using a nut milk bag, gently squeeze the bag to extract as much of the liquid as possible. If using a sieve, allow to drain as much as possible, then use a wooden spoon or rubber spatula to press out as much milk as you can.

Add the remaining 2 cups of filtered water to the almond milk and whisk to incorporate.

If using any additional sweetener or flavorings (like honey or vanilla) add now.

Store this almond milk covered in the refrigerator for 5-7 days.
