One of my favourite plant-based milks is ALMOND MILK.
- Drinking almond milk provides us with minerals such as copper, magnesium, manganese and potassium, as well as antioxidants selenium and vitamin E.
- On top of all that there is calcium, and without the animal protein, our bodies are able to absorb this calcium unhindered.
- It is low in calories, containing no cholesterol or saturated fat.
- All almond milk is naturally gluten, lactose and soy-free.
- Almond milk tastes nothing like dairy... Offering it's own unique light and nutty flavour.
- Almond milk is versatile and can be used in hot drinks, smoothies or just drunk by the glass.
You can make your own almond milk at home by following this simple basic recipe.
Almond Milk
1 cup Almonds (soaked for at least 6 hours)
4 cups water (filtered water would be best)
Wiz this up in your favourite blender until creamy and strain through a nut milk bag or other fine strainer... Yum!
Add a medjool date or some agave if you like it a little sweeter.
