Learn how to make almond milk at home! Homemade almond milk is healthier than many store-bought options (no gums, chemicals or nasty ingredients) and all you need are almonds, water, some natural sweetener (if you like it a bit sweet), and a blender. That’s it!

Step 1 After the almonds have soaked in water overnight, drain and rinse them. Throw the water away.
Step 2 Place the almonds in your blender along with four cups of fresh, cold water and any optional add-ins.
Step 3 Blend on high for 2 minutes.
Step 4 Strain the almond milk through a nut-milk bag or a few layers of cheesecloth into a bowl or large measuring cup (this is an optional, additional rinsing measure. The milk is perfect without this step too). Pour the almond milk into an air-tight storage container and place in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.
