Cardamom Spiced Almond Milk

I’m so excited to be posting my recipe for the Food Advent Calendar!  My chosen spice is cardamom, and I am featuring the spice in a warm chai-like spiced almond milk.  This delicious and warming drink is gluten free and dairy free!

To make this pure winter delight, add all ingredients to a pot and turn the burner on medium-low.  Being careful not to let the milk scald, you may have to adjust your heat setting to low.

Spiced almond milk is perfect for chilly weather.  Or when you have a cold.  It will warm you up from the inside out!  Double or triple the recipe as needed.  A large batch can also be made in the crockpot for a large gathering or merely enjoying it yourself all day long.
