Homemade Almond Milk Tastes SO Much Better
Yes, indeed dear readers, there is no comparison between store bought almond milk and homemade almond milk, well at least not the various brands of almond milk i have tried. I have been making my own almond milk on and off for about five years, and lately for the last three or so months. You see I am eating a 90% plant based diet, and almond milk is my whitener of choice for that morning cup of coffee. Of course, coconut milk is also totally delicious, but quite high in fat, so not an option at the moment……sigh. What about soy milk you ask? Again, I have yet to taste a store bought processed milk alternative that I like, except for that coconut milk, the kind that comes in a carton and is from Thailand. So almond milk it is!
And those jars in the background? Why yes, I have also started to make lacto-fermented pickled vegetables as part of our diet as well, and have some jars pickling as I write this……
Once you get the hang of making almond milk, it really becomes quite simple……I'm only currently using 1/2 cup a day and it really doesn't keep all that well for more than say four days, so I have also started freezing it……with mixed results, but sometimes a few icecubes of almond milk that I can defrost the night before are a huge time saver.
Ah yes, how to make that almond milk? Check out my homemade almond milk post, and enjoy!

I only tried the pickeld cabbage (home made), never tried other lacto-fermented pickled vegetables but they seem very delicious!
