Ingredients:
50g (handful/a cup) almonds
1-2 cups water
1 tsp – 1 tsp organic extra virgin coconut oil
PLUS:
Option 1: avocado and raw honey or an apple
Option 2: apple, banana, handful of strawberries, raspberries, blueberries

1. Soak a handful of almonds overnight (or for 12 hours), drain and rinse.
2. Put almonds in a blender with 1 cup water.
3. Whizz up for 2-3 minutes.
4. Add 1 tsp of organic coconut oil (or more to taste). Blend for 1 minute.

Or you could use the almond milk recipe above instead of steps 1-3.

Option1:
1. Add ½ an avocado and a chopped apple or some raw honey to sweeten.
2. Blend until creamy – add more water if necessary, depending on how thick you like it.
Makes approx. 700ml – 1 large glass.

Option2:
1. Add a banana and summer strawberries, raspberries and or blueberries (if you can’t get fresh, you can use organic frozen berries).
2. Blend for a further minute.
3. Add up to 1 more cup water to thin to desired consistency.
Makes approx. 1300ml – 2 large glasses (to share, or put half in an airtight container and have as a snack later)

You can add your supplements to these smoothies, such as oils, lecithin and bee pollen. Soaked linseeds can be blended into the nut milk before adding the fruit. Or you could also try using different nuts or seeds instead of the almonds.
