Almond Ginger Soft Landing

Almond butter gives this cup body, and fresh ginger adds a warm prickle that makes it feel more interesting than plain nut milk. The ginger should be sliced thinly and removed once its flavor suits you. A little honey is optional, particularly if your almond butter tastes slightly bitter. Whisk well before pouring so the richness is evenly distributed. This is a gentle, nutty drink with a lightly spicy finish, rather than the sharper sensation of ginger tea made with water.

Ingredients

• 8 oz Unsweetened oat milk
• 1 tbsp Smooth almond butter
• 2 slice Fresh ginger, thinly sliced
• 1/2 tsp Honey (optional)

Make it

1. Prepare the ingredients as listed. Any grain, root vegetable or chestnut listed as cooked must already be fully cooked and cooled.
2. Blend the cold oat milk with any fruit, nuts, seeds, nut paste or cooked ingredients until completely smooth. Whisk powders with a spoonful of milk first if needed.
3. Pour into a small saucepan and add the remaining ingredients. Warm gently for 3–4 minutes while whisking; do not boil. Remove any whole peel or ginger slices before serving.
4. Thin with a splash of water if needed and sip once comfortably warm.

Benefits

Almond butter · vitamin E in the mix

Almond butter brings some vitamin E to this warm cup—a nutrient involved in protecting the body’s cells from oxidative damage, alongside a mellow, creamy base from oat milk.

Ginger · a reason to linger

Warm ginger with oat milk and almond butter and you get a peppery warmth in a cup made for small, comfortably warm sips.
