FAQs

Can I use other types of nuts instead of almonds?

Yes, cashews or walnuts can work well, but keep in mind the flavor and texture will change slightly.

Do I have to strain the milk?

Straining removes nut pulp for a smoother drink, but if you prefer a thicker texture, you can skip this step.
