caiceangel Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I love the taste of almond milk, but I hate the time & mess it takes to make it from scratch. I was searching online morning and found something called Almondie Almond Butter. It says it is "100% PURE almond milk concentrate ... RAW, unpasteurized, and preservative free". No sugar or additives listed in the ingredients. http://www.almondie.com/almond_milk.aspx The instructions say to add water to the ground almonds to make almond milk. It looks compliant, but sounds way too good to be true. Has anyone tried this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amberino21 Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 How is it different to almond butter? I've whizzed almond butter with water before to have basically the same result.... It seems like the effort required would likely be similar to making your own milk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caiceangel Posted October 1, 2013 Author Share Posted October 1, 2013 I make my almond milk by blanching raw almonds, removing the skins, blending with water and then straining/squeezing the mixture thru a nut milk bag. It takes forever & makes a huge mess. Have you found an almond butter made wtih peeled almonds? (I HATE the bitter taste of the skins.) Thanks!

amberino21 Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 I buy artisana raw almond butter - pretty sure it still has skins, but I think the nuts are activated which takes away the bitter taste. I have a blender with a tap on the jug, and a filter in the jug to strain off the pulp. Almond milk in less than a minute! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
