Chocolate Almond Milk
Chocolate Almond Milk
The kids will love this! Try this chocolatey variation on our homemade nut milk.
- Nut milk bag
- OmniBlender
- 1 cup almond milk (Make your own for best quality)
- 4 cups water
- 1 pinch sea salt
- 1/2 – 2 tbsp cacao powder (Be aware that high amounts will increase the bitter factor of your finished product. Start with less and increase to your taste.)
- Soak 1 cup almonds (or other nuts or a mix of nuts) overnight.
-
Drain the water off and put in the Omniblend with 4 cups water and a pinch of salt. Blend for 60 seconds, then strain through a sieve and then through your nut milk bag. Squeeze out the moisture (save the solids for putting in your bread/muffins).
-
Add your cacao powder and a pinch of salt.
- Refrigerate and use within 3 days (shake before each use). OR freeze in smaller portions.
-
Variation: add carob instead of cacao and a little honey/xylitol and have yourself a carob-chocolate milk!

The menstrual cycle is more than just a monthly occurrence—it’s a key indicator of overall health. Understanding how the cycle works, what’s normal, and when something might be off can help identify changes in your reproductive health. Each cycle involves a complex interaction of hormones that prepares the body for a potential pregnancy. But periods aren’t just about fertility; they can also highlight conditions like fibroids, endometriosis, or hormonal imbalances. This article breaks down the basics of the menstrual cycle, signs to watch for, and what happens during the transition to menopause, when periods come to an end.

There are six components of personal health which lead to a high level of wellness: physical, emotional, mental, social, environmental and spiritual health. The component we are discussing in this blog is physical health. A high-level of wellness involves taking good care of your physical self, using your mind constructively, expressing your emotions effectively, being creatively involved with those around you, and being concerned about your physical, psychological and spiritual environments.
