Almond milk is a low glycemic alternative to rice milk, and doesn't cause problems with hormone levels like soy milk does. It can be used in place of regular milk in recipes and baking. It is easy to make and has a light taste. Making your own almond milk is so much healthier than buying it at the store.....It is fresh and does not have all the chemicals, additives, coloring and preservatives that even them most marketed "organic" and "natural almond has.....
Don't be fooled by labels that claim to be "organic" and "natural." The FDA allows chemicals, pesticides, additives and preservatives to be called organic.....I emphasize this throughout my posts.

How to Make Almond Milk:
Ingredients
1 cup raw organic almonds
4 cups pure filtered water
vanilla bean (optional)
dates, honey or stevia (optional)
Instructions
Soak almonds for at least 12 hours in pure water with 1/2 tsp sea salt. This is an important step as it breaks down the phytic acid and enzyme inhibitors and cultures beneficial enzymes in the almonds. (side note: soaking nuts should be done before eating them as well. Soak nuts in salt water for 12 hours, rinse them, and dry in oven on lowest heat.)
Rinse almonds well. Mix almonds with pure water in blender or Vitamix.
Blend several minutes until smooth and creamy. (Warning: mixture will expand some, so make sure your blender is not full before starting it)
Strain mixture into a large bowl through a sprout bag, cheese cloth or kitchen towel.
Put mixture back into blender with vanilla, soaked dates, or other sweetener.
Pour into glass jar or pitcher and store in fridge for up to one week.
