What if we made our own plant-based drinks? Let's start with almond milk! With water and crunchy almonds, you'll get an ultra-creamy result. Perfect for enjoying with your tea or coffee, or for baking. The advantage of this recipe? It's zero-waste! No carton to throw away here; everything will be used ;-) As for the okara (the ground, drained almonds left over once your almond milk is ready), you can use it to top your yoghurts or turn it into cookies! Just find the recipe on our website ;-)

Place the almonds in a bowl and pour boiling water over them. Cover with a cloth and let them soak for 1 hour.
Drain the almonds and place them in a blender. Add the 2 & 1/2 cups of water and blend.
