Almond milk was a staple in medieval European cooking, especially during Lent. The ingredient appears in cookbooks starting in the 1200s. Going back even earlier, almond milk was listed as a cough remedy in an 8th century Islamic medical text.
Almond milk is a modern-day fixture of the conscious-eating movement. Of all the non-dairy milk alternatives lining store shelves,among consumers. But the nut milk isn’t just another hipster trend having a moment at your local organic grocery store. This is a beverage with staying power — and we aren’t referring to the carton your vegan cousins left in your refrigerator a couple of months back that still hasn't gone bad.
