Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Raw almonds
- 4 cups Water
- 3 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons Powdered erythritol
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.125 teaspoon Sea salt
Instructions
Soak the raw almonds in water overnight, or for at least 8 hours. This helps soften them, making it easier to blend into a smooth milk.
Drain and rinse the soaked almonds under cold running water.
Place the almonds and 4 cups of fresh water into a blender. Blend on high speed for 2-3 minutes until the mixture is creamy and the almonds are finely ground.
Place a nut milk bag or a fine-mesh strainer lined with cheesecloth over a large bowl. Pour the almond mixture through the strainer, squeezing the nut milk bag or cheesecloth to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the pulp or save it for another use.
Pour the strained almond milk back into the blender. Add the unsweetened cocoa powder, powdered erythritol, vanilla extract, and sea salt.
Blend on high speed for an additional 1-2 minutes until the cocoa powder is fully incorporated and the milk is smooth and creamy.
Taste the almond chocolate milk, adjusting the sweetness or cocoa according to your preference.
Transfer the chocolate milk to a glass jar or bottle and refrigerate. Shake well before serving.
Serve chilled in a glass, and enjoy your homemade keto-friendly almond chocolate milk.
