Made my first batch of almond milk today and have to say it’s pretty darned good!
Almond Milk:
- 2 cups of soaked almonds (soak 8-12 hours)
- 8 cups of water
Blend almonds with half the water until smooth. Pour through fine mesh strainer. Blend almond meal with remaining water and strain again. Reserve almond meal for cookies, creamy sauces or other recipes.
Recipe is from Kristan Andrews:
I must try this.

Erika’s Cranberry Anti-Aging Mask
This delectable mask is packed with antioxidants, vitamin C and collagen boosters.
You’ll need:
1 cup fresh cranberries
1 cup seedless red grapes
2 teaspoons grapefruit juice
1 envelope unflavored gelatin
Mix ingredients until they turn into a paste. Cover and refrigerate for 45 minutes and let thicken. Remove from the fridge and let sit about 10 minutes. Spread the mixture on clean, dry skin, avoiding the eye area. Relax for 15 minutes, then rinse off with warm water.
Erika says, “The fruit acid is a gentle exfoliant and the grapefruit juice is a toner. Cranberries are rich in vitamin A, which have antioxidant properties. They are also full of vitamin C, which helps with collagen production.”
