Start by placing the almonds for the almond milk in a pot and fill with water to cover the nuts. Bring to a boil over high heat. Once they begin to boil, reduce heat slightly to medium-high and let simmer for 8-10 minutes.
Next, drain the almonds and combine with 3 1/2 cups of water and a pinch of salt in the blender and blend till smooth. Once fully blended, grab a nut milk bag and a large bowl and carefully pour the almond milk into the bag over the bowl. Twist the top and squeeze to get as much of the liquid out as you can.
If you don't have a nut milk bag, no worries, grab a fine mesh strainer and a jar or container that fits it easily. Pour the milk through the strainer and use a spoon to push the excess liquid through. Scoop out the almond pulp and rinse the strainer in between pours. Repeat till you’ve strained all the milk. When done pour into a jar, store in the fridge, and enjoy! The milk keeps for about 5 days in the fridge. It has not gone bad if it separates that is a natural process that will occur. You will know if it has gone bad by the smell, if it smells bad, then its gone bad.
