- Drain the soaked almonds and rinse thoroughly.
- Combine the drained almonds, 2 cups of fresh water, and 4 Medjool dates (pitted) in a high-speed blender.
- Blend on high speed until completely smooth and creamy (about 1-2 minutes).
- Line a fine-mesh strainer with cheesecloth and place it over a bowl.
- Pour the almond mixture through the strainer, pressing gently on the solids to extract as much milk as possible.
