Rinse the soaked nuts very well with a strainer.
Place the soaked nuts and the water in a blender and blend on high until smooth.
Taking a cheese cloth or bag, pour the mixture through the cloth into a separate container.
Squeeze all the liquid out of the cloth with your hands, so you get all the milk out and discard all the nut pulp and nut fiber. If you are in a rush, pour the liquid through a fine strainer (though you won’t get every drop of milk out, the way you would with the cheese cloth.
Do a quick-rinse of the blender, and put the strained ‘milk’ back in the blender. Add the Stevia or dates to sweeten to your taste, or leave it out altogether if you like your milk plain.
Enjoy plain, or as a base for smoothies or other recipes!
