Fresh, tasty homemade almond milk – no preservatives, with the deep flavor of real almonds. A great milk alternative for vegans and the lactose intolerant. Vegan version: Date syrup (silan).
Grind the almonds in a blender with the water for 2–3 minutes, until smooth.
⚙ Grinding in a Food ProcessorBlender
💡In a food processor, grind in short pulses and check between pulses: it's easy to go from coarse to paste. (Sesame for tahini, on the other hand, is ground continuously.)

Strain through cheesecloth set over a bowl, and squeeze well.
CheeseclothBowl
💡Squeeze the cloth well to get out as much liquid as possible; the milk separates as it stands, so shake it before using.

Add the date syrup, vanilla extract and salt and whisk.
