Hi,

I use 100 grams per 1700 cc of water. I put it into my SOYMILK MAKER – SoyLOVE and in 20 mins I have almond milk.

100 grams is about = 1/2 cup approx of almonds.

I get my almonds cheap at COSTCO. I can also get them in my local grocery store HEB grocery like a Krogers, Ralphs, they have a bulk area and I get almonds there.

I strain mine quickly with two bowls – one stainless steel and one glass ( I need to get another large stainless bowl. In between I use a fine seive strainer I found at the HONG KONG MARKET for one dollar. it’s large like a one for pasta but has a fine screen on it. Some people use a gold tone coffee filter as a seive.
I go back and forth about four times, rising the seive with water as I go. It makes about 3/4 full in a quart rubbermaid container.

I put in 1 tsp. of clear vanilla extract – WILTON in the cake section of Michaels
a dash of sea salt – 1/8th tsp.. 1/4 cup agave for a sweetner. You can use another kind. You must shake before serving.

Since mine is HOT it has to cool down. It last 3 days. YUMMERS!
GOOD luck with yours.

Oops, just realized heating the milk isn’t raw. Sorry. But it is delicious.

I had a delicious ginger soy latte at a vegan restaurant and tried making it with almond milk and ginger juice (just got a juicer) and heated it and it was so so so good! thanks for the recipe. will be making my first batch tomorrow.

I LOVE almond milk – I make it every other day for my 14 month old dairy allergic little one. Thanks for the tutorial!

It’s certainly not preservatives or packaging. These juices are unpasteurized, cold pressed and raw. And every bottle I’ve ever had has tasted exactly the same (at least a dozen). In fact, another friend of mine has had a similar experience with this one. Overall, they are really fantastic juices. Maybe it’s just the variety of dates or vanilla beans that they use that just tastes a lil funky to me. Perhaps like when I eat lemongrass. If I actually chew the lemongrass, it tastes like Fruit Loops to me. Guess I’m just a weirdo.

Oh, weird! I’m not sure, as I haven’t tried the CC products. It may be preservatives or packaging, but of course there’s also a chance that the milk has gone off. If it’s at all bitter or tastes carbonated, don’t drink it. If it’s just a weird sensation of deja vu, I’d assume you’re good to go, if you can get over it

Hi. I know you made this page a long time ago, but I have a weird question. So I like doing this Cooler Cleanse, which is all raw, unpasteurized juices. One of which is an almond milk. The ingredients are listed as raw almonds, vanilla bean dates, filtered water. But for some reason, when I drink it, right at the beginning of each sip I have this strange sense-memory flavor experience. It tastes like the smell of latex band-aids from when I was a kid. Any idea what that’s about? I’ve never experienced it with any almond milk other than this one. Am I having a stroke?
