Sesame and Almond Milk
High in calcium, magnesium, protein, enzymes and minerals. Adding Sesame or Almond Milk to your daily diet is the natural way to protect against osteoporosis. It builds bones and muscles, helps you feel stronger and increases overall stamina and immunity. My wife and I simply love these milks. You can actually feel your body and your cells being nourished and absorbing this super nutrition! It tastes great with nothing added. This is a great way to start your day!
Ingredients: 1 cup organic (unhulled) brown sesame seeds or almonds 7 cups clean pure water vanilla extract or fresh vanilla bean Stevia to taste
Soak sesame seed for 6-8 hours and almonds for 24 hours. Drain and rinse. Place in blender with water. Blend on high speed for several minutes. Over a bowl, pour mixture into a cheese cloth or a stainless steel strainer and drain milk into bowl. Using a spoon to stir and mash mixture in a strainer is helpful. Throw out the hulls and pulp, chill and enjoy as an ice cold glass of milk or over your favorite cereal.
