  4. Blend for 45 seconds or until desired consistency is reached.
  5. Store in refrigerator. Shake well before using.
  6. If you desire to strain away sediment, place a fine mesh sieve or filtration bag over a large bowl. Pour almond milk slowly into sieve and allow to filter through, or stir the milk in the sieve with a spatula to encourage it to pass through more rapidly. Do not strain if using cashews.
