If you’re an almond milk lover, there’s nothing like homemade almond milk. This stuff is such a treat as it’s thicker and creamier than the store bought kind. The kids will have tons of fun making it too. Use the leftover pulp in your muffins!

- 3 ½ cups filtered water (plus more water for soaking)
