Almond Milk

For a refreshing smoothie, purée almond milk with frozen berries or bananas.

Made from ground almonds, filtered water, and a small amount of sweetener—usually brown rice syrup—almond milk has a light, slightly nutty flavor that substitutes well for low-fat or fat-free milk. Almond milk is 100 percent lactose free and is suitable for those with dairy sensitivities.

Varieties

Almond milk is available in plain, flavored, and fortified varieties.

Buying and storing tips

Look for almond milk in cartons, either on the shelves or in the refrigerated section of natural foods stores and grocery stores. Almond milk will keep for 7 to 10 days; refrigerate after opening. For an extended shelf life and optimal taste, refrigerate overnight before opening.

Availability

Almond milk is available year-round.

Preparation, uses, and tips

In addition to drinking it straight from a glass, almond milk can be poured on breakfast cereals or puréed with frozen berries or bananas for a refreshing smoothie.
