|Have you ever wanted to make your own Vegan Chocolate Almond Milk, but didn’t know how?
Almond milk is a beverage made from ground almonds, often used as a substitute for dairy milk. Unlike animal milk, almond milk contains neither cholesterol nor lactose. As it does not contain any animal products, it is suitable for vegans and vegetarians who abstain from dairy products. I hope you all enjoy this amazing recipe. Chocolate almond milk is great alone, but also great in cereal and in mixed drinks.
