[@BobbyParrish]

thanks Ramya! @@Ramyapad19

[@aanchalgupta1822]

That's a very good and easy recipe. I looked up the ingredients of vanilla paste used and the first ingredient is sugar, can you provide any other option for vanilla paste ??

[@terrentran1]

FlavCity with Bobby Parrish do we use organic almond or regular almond? :)

[@beijaflorlove]

Organic

[@anniedove]

Thank you, Dessi! That is true about the dates helping labor and delivery. My daughter ate them with her first baby and second baby. She went into spontaneous labor, no induction. He was born on his due date.

[@DebInSoTexas]

Cannot thank you enough for the recipe! Husband and I just now made two batches! So easy!!! And we are so pleased to know we are drinking much healthier almond milk! ♥️♥️♥️

[@austin_217]

I want Dessi to host more videos!!

[@ChelX]

Oh erm geeeee! I made this, minus the dates and with 4 cups of water, and I loved it😫😫 I drink silk unsweetened vanilla almond milk (which I love... I hate almond breeze though) and the taste of this after making it was just soooooo good! I used both vanilla essence and extract and sweetened by glass using Splenda. Never buying store bought ever again 🤭🥰

[@dinh71]

I made this, this evening. Followed your exact recipe, and it came out delicious! This may be a regular thing for me. Thanks!

[@lissyquezada2668]

I made it and its incredibly delicious! Best recipie love the consistency nothing to do with store bought. I cant thank u enough :)

[@sirdarklust]

Thanks for the tip on peeling the almonds. I never used to do that, but I did after I saw this video. The almond milk is definitely "cleaner" tasting without the skins.

[@jilleina_]

Thanks for the video. I would like to see recipes that use the pulp.

[@chrispie5]

That would be great! Thx for always making me want to go make food 😜

[@iris-2021]

Add to energy balls, muffins, banana bread, etc.

[@Blessed095]

I completed this recipe today and I was blown away and how good and creamy it was. I will use this recipe from now on and I am going to try and make the Strawberry Almond Milk from your recipe. Thank you so much for this.

[@pastryshack551]

I think coconut milk is even better, 3 cups water to l dry coconut the brown one

[@greeneyedcatwink]

I saw a video here on YT that showed the guy cooking the almond milk just under a boil for a short while (5-10 min?) it made the milk thicker and much creamier. Worth a try!

[@ernemtz9064]

I just made this for the first timE. WOW BEST ALMOND MILK I’VE EVER TRIED. Thank you

[@jennyjohnson5428]

I love you for everything about this video, especially including the macros in the description!! I just learned that I have gestational diabetes & I'm getting more ... 'suspicious' of my staple foods.

[@stelladina2437]

Thanks for sharing this posting,adding date is a great idea. 👍🙏🏼

[@sarojanicone5240]

Dates ! Great way of adding sweetness to the milk. Thanks Dessi 😊

[@catspaw3092]

I heard to use coconut water instead of regular water when blending with the nuts because coconuts gives the right amount of sweetness to the milk.

[@carmenlee5]

I thank you so much for introducing me to cashew ice cream. I had to give up eating ice cream few years now because the older I get I realize each time I would consumed ice cream, I became so gassy. I have tried several different non dairy and I didn't enjoy the taste. I came across your channel and in your Whole Foods video I saw SO brand cashew salted caramel ice cream omg, it's amazing and available at my local Walmart in Virginia. Thank you thank you very much. I am now a subscriber and I enjoyed all your videos.

[@truthbtold6118]

So nice to see Dessi on here she is a sweet lady ! Thanks for the almond milk recipe can't wait to try is soon !

[@grahamclark3600]

Great presentation really appreciated how you cut short each stage of the process in making the milk.

[@KarenEddinger]

Thanks for the recipe! I made it years ago without the cinnamon and vanilla and salt. After watching the video about store-bought almond milk and seeing my go-to brand in the “no” pile, I’m on my way to buy raw almonds and a nut milk bag, thanks!

[@mandypdx]

I never liked almond milk until I used his recipe. Thank you 💕

[@mandypdx]

I bought your cookbook and it arrived today! Just made almond milk and it’s the best I’ve had. I’ve also made your stuffed peppers (I added kalamata olives & artichoke). I cooked it a little different and everyone loved it (walnuts seemed strange at first but was a perfect addition) 😘😘

[@XiomaraDV]

I never do almond milk, but this recipe makes me want to try my own!

[@Mary-io1mb]

I just made this Almond Milk and by far the best Almond Milk recipe I have seen on KZbin so far. Like the fact that the almonds are peeled. Although it take a while to peel them, it's worth while. Thanks for this healthy nut milk recipe.

[@kila9288]

How was the texture of it?

[@Roxie1255]

I would have never thought to use Dates thank you for sharing this with us Dessi & Art. Can’t wait to see more of your kitchen essentials.

[@Msjae00]

Wow! Great video Dessi! This is that simple to make?! Love it! I will try the chocolate recipe! Yum! Thanks for sharing and please do more video Dessi! You're very clear with your instructions!😀

I usually buy almond milk ,but this recipe is so much healthier .. Will definitely try

[@KarlaGarcia-jq8tr]

Just made it and it was a success!! You can't compare with store bought one! This one is delicious!! Thank you so much for sharing the recipe! :)

[@wannellalawson4001]

Great video. Thank you for the recipe. I can eat almonds all day. It does not bother with my stomach. When I buy almond milk it does not taste good. Plus it bothers with my stomach but I think I am going try the recipe. Thanks

[@debbiearroyo1115]

Love this recipe! Awesome almond milk, added the cocoa powder to make chocolate almond milk. My husband could not get enough, had to make a big batch.

[@Drivemode3785]

Looks delicious will definitely make it - just on the skin you mentioned that it doesn’t have any nutritional value - The study identified 20 powerful antioxidant flavonoids in almond skin.

[@girlgonefishing6563]

Love the recipe. Thanks Desi for the tip of peeling the almonds.

[@edsvfr800fi]

I have made almond milk several times now and experimented by adding organic powder sunflower lecithin (about 1 tsp per 4 cups of water). this helps keep it from separating and preserve it in the fridge a lot longer. Doesn't affect the taste much at all.

[@simplegirlslifestyle261]

Making it tomorrow morning, almonds are soaking now ❤️❤️think you, I had no idea how easy it was.

[@eugeniawebb-riggins7283]

Hi Dessi. Thank you for the almond milk recipe. I am looking forward to trying this. You also look beautiful. Thank God for you and Bobby.

So excited to try this! I recently started following this channel and love all the content. It was my first video with Dessi, nice to “meet you”! 🙂🙃

[@mindytran761]

It looks delicious and easy to make. Thanks so much for share with us

[@jlc2120]

I finally made this recipe today and it was great! It was a little watery I wonder if 44 ounces of water is a tad too much I’m going to repeat this with a tad less water though. Thanks for sharing!

[@smpendleton]

thank you for the recipe, I just finished making almond milk- it taste much better than the store bought, it’s good and creamy. Thank you

[@cathychats]

Finally someone whk peels them! Thank you. I watched another youtuber and she didnt peel them and my milk got bad in 1 day. Then my mom said " did you peel them?"

[@beijaflorlove]

It is amazing the test and very easy to do. Way better than the store. Thank you so much I love your recipes. I have done some and very tasty!!! 😉😄

[@sweetessence59]

awesome, saved this for when i make this. i need one of those bags.

[@stelampetkova6124]

Absolutely delicious. I love to drink it with matcha.

[@lizz9840]

Thank you! i’ve been looking for this. I love your work.

[@yocelin1087]

This would be perfect to use on oatmeal. Thanks for the recipe!

[@smpendleton]

Good morning Flav Family, thanks for the awesome videos you all make. Dessi- I been making my own almond milk ever since I saw your video, but the other day I got lazy and didn’t want to peel the skin off. I went to Trader Joe’s and bought the oven roasted, unsalted sliced almonds, I still soaked them overnight and followed your recipe. It was delicious 😋❤️. Thank you for your delicious recipe❤️❤️.

[@kimgregory9420]

Good recipe will be using this 1 all the time!!

[@Facepaintventura]

That looks so yumm!

I need to see more Dessi videos. I love this couple! I will be trying out this almond milk recipe!

[@ChristopherImmakeepitastack]

Did it today and it’s so good 🥴 good and easy homemade almond milk

[@matthewyarnell3272]

Well done on your video. Personally, I just blend the almonds with skins. Most of the skins will be removed when straining with a wire mesh strainer, juicer or nut bag. I also keep it all raw by just blending the dates with the almonds...

[@annechalmers5630]

Another fab recipe......love love love.....Flavcity…...the best out there......cannot wait for my book to arrive......keep on cooking!!!

[@kathyhollowell7889]

Dessie I made this almond milk its very good, i dont have cinnamon though which is the best cinnamon

[@frankd963]

Excellent. The first video that I have come across that explains why you take the skin off the almonds! Can one just buy blanched almonds if they wanted to save them self some time? Would it be the same from a nutritional point?

[@pandumaggi]

Thank you for the wonderful recipe. Can we use almond flour and water instead of blanching the almonds?

[@marian9455]

Thankyou thankyou dear❤ I made this and it's so so nutritious.. the taste OMG so heavenly nutty and milky😋😋 thankyou once again 🙏

I will make it. Thank you!!

[@kayl2307]

Hello, can this milk be heated? For instance, can I use it when making hot oatmeal?

[@kimariokiji]

Hello, great video. Do you soak the almonds overnight in the fridge? I live in a humid environment. Thanks!

[@leefury7]

Instead of adding vanilla extract, add vanilla Ka'Chava. Soooo much more flavorful. Also, boil half of what you make then add it to the other half in the blender. Makes it thicker.

[@nm9412]

I just made this, it was delicious!

Easy, straightforward. Nice. I’ll try it!! ✌️😉

[@monicaelena6356]

Love you guys! I'm curious, can we do anything with the water strained from the almonds?

[@cathyxox3999]

That looks and sounds yummy question do you think a person has to have a Vitamix to make that oat milk almond milk nut milk grain milks?

[@jetlagandlovinit]

I tried this recipe today and would suggest one change: I recommend pouring the milk through the nutbag a second time after blending the dates to remove any additional date fiber. The flavor of this milk is enjoyable (reminds me of horchata) but I found that the consistency wasn't as smooth as I was hoping for after adding the dates. I wouldn't call it chalky but I would say it was there was a detectable difference. This may have been an error on my part since it was the first time I've made almond milk. A vitamix and a nutbag were my tools. Other recipes call for honey as a sweetener which would probably yield a smoother milk if that it what you are looking for. Did anyone else have a similar experience to mine?

[@jetlagandlovinit]

*The last step in the directions says that the taste and texture greatly improve after 8 hours of refrigeration. I will have to report back after I've waited :)

[@jetlagandlovinit]

The texture did get better but is still noticeable. The cinnamon and date particles tend to sink to the bottom of the liquid. In summary: warm tasting with a slightly coating mouthfeel.

[@tanial8171]

It did happened to me. But I don't care that much since it's used for make fruit shakes for my 2yo son. The only thing would be the amount of dates, wich would be 3 or 4 since the fruit has a lot of sugar (bananas) and the result was a very sweet shake.

[@roger12393]

Yes, the same thing happened to me also I went back and strained it I didn't like the little bits of dates left in the milk. Also after adding the dates my pure white milk turned tan. What a disappointment. Did yours turn a tan color after adding the dates?

[@XSilvenX]

@@roger12393 I don't see how you could avoid the color change considering you're adding dates. No real way to get around that. It's just visual anyway, plus there are other sweetener options if anything.

[@Pravin_coheir]

Wonderful. Any brand use only these ingredients?

[@ppowerproductions2953]

I love dates and almond milk I also drink regular milk but I enjoy almond milk because I have a hard time eating nuts due to dental issues so this is a way for me to eat nuts without chewing on them thanks I will try this recipe

@5:48 You mentioned "air tight container", does this include being able to store it in a vacuum sealed jar? Thanks in advance.
