Sweet Almond Milk
There's nothing quite like freshly made almond milk
If you haven’t made fresh almond milk, then you’re in for a treat. You will feel very industrious having produced your own milk — a wonderful accomplishment. This recipe is sweet, feel free to adjust that to suit your taste. Also, feel free to make a double batch, however only blend and strain 2 cups at a time.
