Recipe for almond milk (dairy-free and delicious):

100g raw almonds(organic if you can) soaked in a cup of water overnight (or for a couple of hours)

blend with 1 litre of filtered water

add a dash of cinnamon (about 1/4 teaspoon or more if you like)

add a tablespoon of honey or agave nectar(suitable for diabetics)

add 1/4 teaspoon of  natural vanilla extract or teaspoon of vanilla powder

add a tablespoon coconut oil (optional)

blend it all again!

strain the mixture through a nut milk bag or a clean stocking that you’re not going to wear again to get all the bits out

now you have a perfect, delicious alternative to milk to use on your cereal and in your tea but you’ll probably just drink it as is!

By the way, almonds are a very healthy source of protein, calcium, B vitamins and good-for-you fats.

Variations:

Add a few tablespoons of raw chocolate powder(available at most health stores) for a scrumptious, dairy-free chocolate milk.

or

Add a dash of nutmeg for a different taste sensation!

Almond milk will keep for a couple days in the fridge (if you can leave it for that long!)
