1 tsp organic vanilla extract, optional for vanilla flavor (pure vanilla like this)
Instructions
Soak almonds overnight, or up to 48 hours. To soak, place almonds in a bowl and add water so the almonds are generously covered. Add salt and let soak.
Once soaked, drain and rinse almonds with cold water.
In a food processor or blender, combine almonds, vanilla, dates and 2 cups water. If you’re using dates, pit and soak for approximately 5 minutes before adding.
Blend for approximately 2-4 minutes until smooth, stopping periodically to scrape the sides.
In a bowl, strain through a cheese cloth (which is what I use) or fine mesh nut bag.
Store in the refrigerator for up to a week.
