4.Place the tiger nuts in a blender and add two cups of filtered water, a little at a time. Too much water can dilute the flavour of the tiger nuts.

5.If you are adding any flavourings, now’s the time.

6.Blend on high until smooth and creamy. This usually takes around three minutes.

7.Pour through a fine sieve, nut bag, cheese cloth, etc. to separate the milk from the tiger nut pulp.

8.Place the tiger nut pulp back in the blender and add another 1-2 cups of water. Blend again for a couple minutes and the strain again. This can be repeated up to three times. You can combine the milk with the first batch, or keep your batches separate. The second and third batch won’t be as creamy as the first.
