This easy-to-make summer treat can be made non-dairy with coconut milk or another milk alternative if desired. The consistency will vary depending on the “milk” chosen, but the end result will still be very chocolatey. It’s not too sweet, so feel free to add more sugar as well as extras such as cacao nibs, chocolate chips, dried fruits, or chopped fresh fruit or berries.
Ayurveda really knows how to do almonds! The nuts are soaked and the skins removed for easier digestion. For added sweetness without added sugar, try a chopped date or a dried fig. The spices are suggestions – please feel free to add any that you love. Enjoy this delicious, nutritious almond milk warmed or chilled.
