Prep time: 20 mins       Total time: 20 mins
servings: 2

Ingredients

• 1 cup (170 g) raw almonds or other nuts, soaked
• Water from 1 young Thai coconut
• Meat from 2 young Thai coconuts
• 6 probiotic capsules

Instructions

1. Soak the raw almonds in filtered water for 24 hours. Soaking the nuts is crucial as this will activate the dormant enzymes and release the nutrients.
2. Drain the almonds from their soaking water and rinse them thoroughly under cool running water.
3. Place the clean almonds, coconut water, young coconut meat and the powder from the priobiotic capsules into a high-speed blender.
4. Blend until the ingredients form a smooth yogurt-like consistency.
5. Pour the mixture into two sealable glass jars, filling only ⅔ of the way full. Cover and let sit at least 3 to 4 hours on a warm day and 4 to 6 hours on a cool day. This will allow the probiotics to start to proliferate and break down the yogurt.
6. The longer you let it sit, the tangier it will be. Store in the refrigerator and enjoy with granola, in smoothies, in salad dressings or eat it plain.
