Notes

Tip #1: I like to make my own homemade almond milk with my Vitamix to avoid the additives and processed boxed milk, but you can substitute it your favorite non-dairy (or dairy for non-vegan) milk. I buy my raw, organic, unpasteurized, sproutable almonds in bulk from here. Tip #2: The organic hemp seeds and organic cacao nibs for garnish are optional and added for extra nutrition. Tip #3: You can use fresh or frozen strawberries…I like to use frozen so I don’t have to add ice cubes.
