4. Nutritional Value of Almond Milk
• Almond milk is one of the most nutritious milk substitutes available. It
doesn't contain saturated fats or cholesterol, but it does contain omega-3
fatty acids, so it's very good for your heart. Almond milk is high in protein;
the typical eight ounce serving of almond milk contains about one gram of
protein. One serving of almond milk also contains about one gram of dietary
fiber.

5. Benefits of Almond Milk
• Almond milk is great for those who are lactose intolerant, because it doesn't
contain any lactose. Almond milk also contains no soy, so it's good for those
who suffer from soy allergies. Because almond milk doesn't contain casein, a
milk protein that's chemically similar to gluten, almond milk is appropriate for
those who suffer from gluten allergies

6. • Almond milk contains ground almonds and water. It's a healthy alternative
to cow's milk, and contains more vitamins and minerals than soy and rice
milks. Many people who've tried almond milk prefer the flavor of almond
milk to that of soy and rice milk

10. 1.Soak the almonds in water overnight. Do this for at least 8
hours, up to about 12 hours. The soaking softens them well
for use, but is optional. Drain the water from the almonds.

healthy sweetener, to taste

13. 4.Strain. This is very important or you will be drinking almond pulp as
well as the milk. Using something like a very fine strainer or sieve, or
several layers of cheesecloth (muslin), pour the almond milk through
the filter into a large bowl underneath.
