What to do

Soak almonds in water overnight. Drain and rinse.

Add your almond milk back to the blender and add the rest of the ingredients. Whizz on high speed for 1 minute or until everything is well blended.
-
Pour the milk into a pot and gently heat on medium heat until it just starts to boil.

Pour into 4 mugs, sprinkle with extra cinnamon and serve.

This milk can be stored in the fridge for 3 days.
