Ingredients
- 1 cups raw almonds
- 4 cups filtered water
- Pinch salt
Instructions
- Combine raw almonds with enough water to cover the almonds by about least 3 inches. Let stand overnight.
- The next day, strain the almonds. Then transfer to a high-speed blender with the 4 cups filtered water and a pinch of salt.
- Blend until smooth and well blended, about 1 minute. Be careful not run too long as this will heat the milk.
- Strain the milk in a nut milk bag, coffee filter, or a clean and thin dish towel. Pour the almond milk into a bottle, seal and place in the fridge for up to 7 days.

Notes
- Storage: Store your almond milk in the fridge in a sealed container. It will keep well for up to 7 days.
- Freezing: It is not advisable as the texture change will make it unappealing.
