Almond (Nut) Milk
Makes 1 quart

Ingredients:

1/2 cup organic raw almonds (or any other seed or nut)
2 1/2 cups purified water
1 tsp lemon juice
1/4 tsp sea salt
2 pitted dates
1 tsp vanilla extract

Preparations:

Place the 1/2 cup almonds in a medium size bowl and soak them in water overnight.
(it won't hurt if you soak them longer than 12 hours) While they are soaking rinse a couple times and discard old brown water and replace it with fresh water. After it has soaked over night you can keep almonds with water in the jar 2-3 days in the refrigerator.

The next day, discard the old water, rinse well and peel brown almond skin if you desire. Place the almonds and fresh water into the high speed blender and blend for 30 seconds.
Add the lemon juice, dates, vanilla, and sea salt and process again.
Place into a quart glass jar to preserve the taste and freshness.
Can be stored in the fridge for 3-4 days.

* If you don't have high speed blander you can strain the liquid through cheesecloth to remove the large pieces.
