Almond milk is made by mixing crushed almonds with water and further filtering. The result is a sweetish milky liquid. Almond milk has been used since the Middle Ages, when it was used as a substitute for cow's milk, which quickly deteriorated. Today, almond milk has become popular with vegetarians as a milk replacer that does not contain animal products. It is also a good choice for those who are lactose intolerant as almond milk is lactose free. Industrial almond milk is sold in several varieties: no additives, vanilla, chocolate. It is also often fortified with vitamins. Almond milk can be used in many ways; here are some ways.

Steps

Method 1 of 4: Drinks with Almond Milk

1. 1 Drink almond milk. Almond milk can be drunk in the same way as regular milk. You can buy unflavored almond milk, vanilla or chocolate. Milk without additives can be sweet or not. Manufacturers recommend shaking the packaging before use, as sediment may form on the bottom. All flavors of almond milk can also be added to coffee or tea just like regular milk and cream.
2. 2 Use almond milk in smoothies. Almond milk can be used in smoothies in place of regular dairy products. Simply place the fruit (frozen is best) and the almond milk in the blender in a blender and beat until blended. You can use less or more milk to thicken the smoothie.
3. 3 Make Indian Saffron Nut Milk.
   • Take half a cup of lukewarm almond milk (you can also make a drink with regular milk), add a pinch of saffron and let it brew while you cook the rest of the ingredients. Saffron will give the milk its color and aroma.
   • Blanch 1–2 pitted dates (amount to taste).
4. 4 Chop the dates along with the green cardamom pod, 2-3 almonds and 2-3 cashews.
5. 5 Saute 2-3 pistachios and 1 almond and chop them lengthwise.
   • Pour 1 1/2 cups of chilled almond milk into a blender. Add chopped ingredients and sugar (optional) and whisk for a few seconds.
6. 6 Add half a cup of saffron milk and stir.
7. 7 Garnish with chopped nuts and serve.
   • Note: It is better to grind some dates in a blender first, and then add other ingredients, as dates may not grind properly if mixed with milk.

Method 2 of 4: Eating with Almond Milk

1. 1 Add almond milk to cereals, cereals, or cereals. Almond milk can be used in place of cow's or soy milk to top your breakfast cereal. Hot or cold, whichever you prefer: either way, almond milk will add a touch of sweetness and creamy flavor to the cereal.

Method 3 of 4: Cooking with Almond Milk

1. 1 Cook with almond milk. Almond milk can be substituted for cow milk in any recipe. Use the same amount of almond milk for the dish as indicated in the recipe for the regular one. It can be added to doughs, soups, sauces - almost anywhere regular milk is used.

Method 4 of 4: Using Almond Milk as a Supplement

1. 1 Mix almond milk with protein powder. Compared to cow's milk, almond is low in protein. Most often, it contains about 1 g of protein per 1 cup (240 ml), while the same volume of 2% cow's milk contains about 8 g of protein. Almond milk mixes well with protein powder and is a great choice for those looking to boost their protein intake without drinking cow's milk.
2. 2 Consume almond milk for its nutritional and dietary value. Almond milk contains no saturated fat and is generally about half as fat as 2% cow's milk. It is cholesterol free and rich in calcium. Almond milk contains 15% more calcium per day than cow's 1%. Homemade almond milk is an acceptable substitute for regular milk for those who follow the principles of raw food.

Tips

• Almond milk is best consumed within 7-10 days after opening the package. Do not drink almond milk like regular dairy products if the expiration date has passed.

Warnings

• Like all nuts and nut products, almond milk should not be given to children under 1 year of age or substituted for cow's milk without a doctor's recommendation.
