Almond Milk

Can't stand the thought or taste of cow milk? Can't handle digesting cow milk or just plain scared of drinking cow milk? Not fond of soy milk or worried about all the negative reviews of soy products?

Try almond milk!

Almond milk is a good source of Vitamin E, calcium, Vitamins D & E, and it is rich in protein and omega fatty acids. It is cholesterol and lactose free.

You can buy almond milk in the store (Blue Diamond is a popular brand found in most grocery stores) - look for it on the shelf since it doesn't need to be refrigerated.

Many people make their own almond milk though, and recipes abound online. Here are a few of our favorites.

Almond Milk with Maple Syrup
Raw Vanilla Almond Milk

and...of course we feel obliged to reference Almond-Milk.com as a great reference and source of multiple recipes and plenty of information on almond milk (and other nut milks too!)

Give it a try - you might be surprised how delicious almond milk is!
