Scale
- 2 cups almond milk, (to make your own, see recipe below)
- 1 tsp coconut oil
- 2 tsp maple syrup
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp pitaya powder/dragon fruit powder
- pinch nutmeg
- pinch cardamom
- rose petals, (optional for serving)
Homemade Almond Milk
- 2 cups raw almonds
- 6 cups water , (preferably filtered/purified)
- 6 dates
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 8 cups filtered/purified water
Instructions
- If you’re making your own almond milk, soak your almonds overnight in the 6 cups of water (I soak mine in the fridge). If not, you can use store bought almond milk and get right to it, but I would recommend trying to make your own! 🙂 Proceed to directions below.
- **NOTE: If making your own almond milk, you will need to purchase a nut milk bag (affiliate link). I bought mine from Ellie’s Best (www.elliesbest.com). USE CODE littlevittles for 10% of your order!
- In a small saucepan, heat 2 cups of almond milk on medium-high heat until it starts to turn frothy. Whisk in your other ingredients until dissolved. Garnish with dried rose petals if desired and serve!
Homemade Almond Milk
- Soak 2 cups of almonds in 6 cups of purified/filtered water overnight (I keep mine in the fridge)
- Drain and rinse your almonds, then place them in a blender with dates, vanilla, salt, and 8 cups of water. Blend on high until the mixture is finely blended (about a minute)
- Position your nut milk bag (affiliate link) over a large bowl or pitcher and pour the nut milk puree into the bag
- Twist and knead the bag gently, allowing for the filtered milk to collect until the pulp is dry
- Refrigerate and serve chilled, or use in this moon milk recipe!
