Raw Almond milk

Doing your own milk is super easy and super delicious. Its easier than you think.
I love doing mine, I feel proud and it tastes so much better then the almond milk in stores. I use it everywhere, in my smoothies, recipes, coffee and tea. Dip you cookies in it = Heaven. 

So here is how you can make your own delicious Almond (or other nut) milk 
1. Measure 1 cup of nuts and cover them with water. Soak them for 8 hours. 
2 .8 hours later, rinse your nuts. Add your soaked nuts in your blender.
3. Add 4 cups of water and blend. Line a jug with a nut milk bag or a cheesecloth, pantyhose. 
4. Pour the mix into the jug and squeeze. 
Your done :) 

Voici la recette en français :)

1. Mesurez une tasse de noix de votre choix (amande, cajou, macadam...) Couvrez votre tasse de noix avec de l'eau et laisser le tout tremper 8 heures. 

2. 8 heures plus tard, jetez l'eau de trempage et rincer vos noix. 

3. Versez vos noix au mélangeur et ajoutez 4 tasses d'eau. Mélanger ensuite à haute pression. 
Prenez une grande cruche et d'un sac à lait de noix (vous pouvez aussi utiliser un coton fromage ou un linge à vaisselle propre)

4. Placer le linge au dessus de la grande cruche et verser ensuite le mélange. Pressez le mélange afin de faire sortir tout le lait de noix possible. Répétez jusqu'à ce que tout votre mélange soit filtré ! 

Vous avez terminé :)
Le lait se conserve 3-4 jours.
