Ingredients

  • 4 cups water

Cups - Metric

Instructions

  • Soak hazelnuts in water overnight or for 6-8 hours in a bowl. This makes the nuts softer for optimal juicing. We recommend juicing 2 cups of hazelnuts to make 3.5 cups of hazelnut milk (28 oz).
  • Soak dates with pits removed in warm water to soften for 20-30 mins. If using soft Meedjol dates, you can skip this step.
  • Pour out the water and rinse the hazelnuts. Add equal parts of fresh water into the bowl.

Slow Juicer Method

  • Turn on your slow juicer and add hazelnut, dates, and equal parts fresh filtered water into the juicer. For best results, add ingredients through the hole in the hopped lid while in the closed position.
  • Keep going until you've put in all the hazelnuts and water. Watch the nuts turn into milk and let it flow out.
  • Pour yourself a glass and enjoy!

Blender Method

  • After soaking your ingredients, add all the ingredients into a blender and mix for a minute.
  • Serve. No need to strain the nut milk.
