Almond milk

Here is a simple way to make milk from Almonds:

Take a handful of almonds and place them in water over night to soak.You do not actually have to do this, however, it softens them up a bit. How much water you can experiment with.  I soak about one handful in 2 cups of water. The next day I add about five cups more.  Some people like it thicker or thinner almond milk.  You will have to play around with it to your taste.

Add honey, vanilla, in a blender and mix it. I do not strain it but most people use a cloth or strainer to take out the Almond paste. The proportions of honey and vanilla, are to taste. I sometimes add coconut milk.

The main thing is Almonds have lots of magnesium and even b17  laetrile which is unproven anti cancer vitamin.  There is no way raw Almond milk can be too unhealthy for you. Many people who are allergic to soy drink this.

One note of caution according to wiki almonds that are bitter combined with water releases cyanide.

I tried to give it to my little daughter to replace her normal milk and she drank a little but preferred her formula or hen goats milk to Almond milk. She is 15 months so do not worry she is not anything like 3 months.

There is nothing more to say about Almond milk it is very easy to make and one handful of almonds will yield a quart of almond milk.

Please let me know if you have any further ideas about almond milk or anything to add.
