ya... I've never actually done it. Someone told me it's better if you strain out the almond chunks through a cheese cloth, as does this recipe (I just went looking for)...
Time Required: 15 minutes
Here's How:
1. Place 1 cup freshly roasted almonds in a glass jar.
2. Cover with 4 cups water.
3. Tightly close the jar.
4. Refrigerate for 1 day or no more than 2 days.
5. Pour into blender and blend until smooth.
6. Strain liquid from pulp through cheesecloth, applying pressure to squeeze out all liquid.
7. Retain the almond paste pulp for other uses.
Tips:
Use almond milk in recipes or as a delicious drink by itself or with a little honey and vanilla.
The almond paste pulp can be used to top cereal, vegetables, or rice.
I've always wondered why it's called "milk" and not juice. I figure it has to do with marketing the product for the consumers minds. Almond milk is better perceived than Almond juice. This is funny because milk only comes from mammary glands.
