My question is - What if you make your own almond milk with only 3 ingredients? Almonds, water & dates ? I only think of having some on hand for a cup of coffee ( so other than for good hydration ) because it’s liquid is water … can’t we just eat a certain amount of almonds in a day after soaking them to get nutritional benefits rather than going through all those steps just to drink flavored white water ? I’m super curious also because isn’t the skin of an almonds bad for our digestion or is it not harmful? I feel like it’s just a trend . I can’t think of what else I want a nut milk in … maybe oat meal ? But honestly what else because it is just water at the end of the day either way the benefits almonds have .

Best almond milk is to make it yourself using almonds, distilled water, a little Celtic salt, optional to add a sweetener like dates, honey, stevia, or a natural flavoring like vanilla extract

I used to not like the taste of almond milk but now I’m used to it and it doesn’t make me have to go to the bathroom

I love my organic unsweetened Almond milk which my nutritionist recommended. 🥰

[Anarchsis]

I make my own nut milks and I use monkfruit to sweeten it.

[janiesippel]

The brand Almond Malk seems to be pretty good unsweetened ingredients are organic almond, filtered water, pink Himalayan salt. Milk bothers my gut so I am not sure what else to use.

[Meditatewithmothernature]

I might add to your perfect description that every 1 litre of this almond cocktail has only 5% of real almonds blended with 95% of water and additives…a lot of people don’t read labels because they trust the commercials on the idiot box😂

[satyricon]

Isn't there a lot of starch in almond milk?

[BabyGangsterIsMe]
