Recipe Notes
• Filtered water should be used instead of tap water as tap water will affect the flavor of the almond milk. • Strained almond solids can be dried out in the oven at a low temperature (225° F) and used as almond flour in baking recipes. • Almond milk can be flavored with pure vanilla extract and a small amount of honey if desired.
