    It's super easy to make on your own
    just blend up a tsp of almonds per cup of water. Soaking the almonds first makes it easier, but if you have a high speed blender, you can just make it anytime.

    I do this every few days and it's awesome. You can even add vanilla extract or sugar if that's your thang

    I've seen cheap soy milk at home bargins before, not sure about almond milk! Yep H&B is your best bet I'd say!
  • So what are the benefits of Almond Milk? Never heard of it but sounds lovely. How many calories etc?? x

    Do you have a Nutricentre in a Tesco near you? Ours sell it, I always want to buy it but I refuse to spend over £2 on a carton of milk

    I stick to Oatly which is a nicer taste than soy milk but not as dear as almond

    I made the mistake of getting hemp milk once, never again :sick:

    oh yeah, you can also just put a tbsp of almond butter with a cup of water in a blender and it makes almond milk. Even easier;)

    Depending on who makes it it has more calcium than milk the one I use only 35 cal, no sugar only 1 carb, 2.5 g of fat (good). Plus shelf life is awesome although I use mine up no worries like the one I have now does not expire till June 19.

    It is made by SILK called Pure Almond I use it everyday for making my protein smoothie ..I hope you can find it as I am in the US.

    Alpro brand you can get at most large supermarkets. They don't seem to have it at the smaller shops in london, but I order groceries online from tesco and they always have it in stock. Once I ordered a few containers and they substituted hazelnut for one of them. If it is on sepcial is it £1 a litre, otherwise I think it is something like £1.30.

    Holland and Barret is much more expensive - they have a different brand and it is £3 a litre.
