d_suprstar: #almondmilk yo! 🙌🏾🙌🏾 i finally made it and i'm never buying it again! 💥 w/ the help of my awesome @blendtec, u definitely need a high speed blender to grind those almonds to a pulp! 😁😁 so, 1-SOAK the #almonds overnight, mine were underwater for a little over 12 hrs and w/ a pinch of salt 2- RINSE WELL 3- i used 1 cup of almonds so i addes 3 cups of water to blend ( if you want it creamier add less water, but i liked this consistency) 😁👍🏾 4- POUR the mixture in a bowl THROUGH a NUT MILK BAG and press to get all the liquid out ( a cheese cloth won't work as well cuz the holes r bigger) 5- add vanilla & the sweetener of ur choice to taste, and combine well, u can do it back on ur blender after giving it a rinse. and that's it! 😆✨ drink up! ----✨SO WHY SOAK THEM?✨---- 👉🏾raw nuts, grains & legumes have phytic acid which is essential for their growth but can cause some digestive problems on humans as well as interfere in the absorption of nutrients👈🏾 & the soaking neutralizes the high levels of phytic acid 🌰 ideally raw nuts should b pre-soaked before eating to get their full benefits, then, to bring them back to a crispier texture u can toast n the oven @ the lowest setting for about 24 hrs, OR much quicker in a dehydrator, if u have one 🌰 so, if u eat A LOT of nuts u should consider pre-soaking 😁✨ #livelifenatural 🍃 #plantbased #delicious #nuts #fruit 🌰#vegan #veganfoodshare #nutritional 💚 #wholefood #DIY #instagood 🍃#instahealth #wellbeing 🌰#health #wellness #healthy 🌰 #healthyliving #allnatural #pure ✨
