Ingredients

Units 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

  1. 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.
  2. **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!
  3. 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

  1. Soak 2 cups of almonds in 6 cups of purified/filtered water overnight (I keep mine in the fridge)
  2. 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)
  3. Position your nut milk bag (affiliate link) over a large bowl or pitcher and pour the nut milk puree into the bag
  4. Twist and knead the bag gently, allowing for the filtered milk to collect until the pulp is dry
  5. Refrigerate and serve chilled, or use in this moon milk recipe!
