how to make almond milk without a blender

  1. Finely chop the almonds, place them in a cheesecloth and nod it.

  2. Bring the water to a boil, remove it from heat, insert the almond sack and infuse for 2 hours.

  3. Remove the cloth, and squeeze and drain water as much as possible.

how to make almond milk without a cheesecloth (or how to get a second batch)

  1. If you don't have or don't want to use a cheesecloth, blend water and almonds for a few minutes at the maximum speed, then strain the liquids through a fine sieve.

  2. You may also have a second, less intense batch from the almonds you used to make almond milk without a blender: blend ½ liter (1/8 gallon) of water and the almonds you already used, for a few minutes, maximum speed. Strain through a fine sieve.

in both cases

  1. Add sugar and mix (hand blender, for best results).

  2. Refrigerate and serve cold.
