1/2 c Almonds
1 tb Syrup, maple
2 c Water
Use raw almonds. Place almonds in blender and grind to fine
powder. Add syrup and 1 c water. Blend 1-2 minutes until
smooth. With blender running on high, slowly add remaining
water. Blend 2 minutes. Place strainer over large bowl. Line
with cheesecloth (not 100% neccessary, but recommended.
Otherwise strain twice with very fine strainer.) Pour almond
milk slowly into strainer and let filter through. When all
milk has passed through strainer, press remaining milk out
of accumulated almond fiber. Each serving will be
approximately 1-1/4 cups. Milk will keep in fridge 4-5 days.
Leftover fiber can be used as moisturizing body scrub in the
shower.
