You can also use any sort of nuts you like. I love Hazelnut milk, but of course almonds, brazils etc also make great flavours!
(PS. Sometimes I brew some caffeine free chai herbs from T2 to my water before i mix it in with the nuts so i have a chai latte all ready whenever i want it! Yummy hot or cold!)
Joy's Tasty Raw Tips
Almond Nut Milk
Free Recipe!
Ingredients: 100gm Raw Almonds, a few pitted dates, 750ml filtered water
Method: Soak a handful of almonds, approx. 100gm for 12-24 hours in some water (preferably filtered). Drain. They swell up to double their size and are much easier to digest when soaked.

Almonds are a good source of calcium and healthy fats.
You can use them unpeeled (but if you prefer to remove the skins, pour almost boiling water onto them, wait a minute and then using a spoon, lift out one at a time and squeeze between fingers and thumb. The skin should slide off easily. If it doesn’t your water was not hot enough.)
Yes I know it sounds like a lot of hard work but it goes surprisingly quickly. How much time do you spend in front of the TV or yakking on the phone? If you’re doing a lot of nuts at once, get someone in the family to help out.

Soak some dried pitted dates tin water 12-24 hours. Do not drain. The water gets syrupy and sweet and the dates soften. Blend the nuts in 750ml filtered water, optional - add the dates with soak liquid = sweet almond milk.
If you are just using the milk to pour on cereal or raw muesli you won’t need to strain the mixture. Otherwise pour the liquid through a nut milk bag - muslin/cheesecloth etc. (I have used a lingerie wash bag before) Keep the nut pulp for using in other recipes.
The nut milk should keep in the fridge in a glass jar for 4-7 days. Just check toward the 4 day mark to make sure it still smells ok.
