Ingredients
- 1 cup raw almonds
- 3 cups water
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons erythritol or any low-carb sweetener
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Directions
Step 1
Place the raw almonds in a bowl and cover them with water. Let them soak for at least 4 hours or overnight. This helps to soften the almonds and make blending easier.
Step 2
Drain and rinse the soaked almonds thoroughly, then add them to a blender along with 3 cups of fresh water.
Step 3
Blend the mixture on high speed for about 2 minutes, or until the almonds are finely ground and the milk is creamy.
Step 4
Use a nut milk bag or a fine-mesh strainer lined with cheesecloth to strain the almond milk into a bowl. Squeeze or press to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the almond pulp or save it for another use.
Step 5
Return the strained almond milk to the blender and add the unsweetened cocoa powder, erythritol (or preferred sweetener), vanilla extract, and salt.
Step 6
Blend on high speed for about 30 seconds until the ingredients are well combined and the cocoa powder is completely dissolved.
Step 7
Taste and adjust the sweetness to your preference, adding more sweetener if desired.
Step 8
Transfer the almond chocolate milk to a glass container and refrigerate for at least 1-2 hours to chill before serving.
Step 9
Shake well before each use, as the ingredients may settle. Enjoy your homemade low-carb almond chocolate milk cold.
