Instructions
Add oats to a medium sized bowl and cover with water. Let the oats soak in the water for about 15 minutes.Once the oats have finished soaking, strain the oats making sure to rinse them very well.
Once the oats have finished soaking, discard water and strain the oats making sure to rinse them very well. This allows the oats to absorb water which makes blending them much easier. Put all ingredients in the blender.
Cover with four cups of water and blend. Having a high-speed blender, like Vitamix, really helps, but is not necessary. You may just have to blend the ingredients much longer.Blend ingredients until really smooth. Add the remainder of water (from the eight cups) and blend again until super smooth and silky. This should create about eight cups.
Once the oat milk has been blended, simply strain the mixture with a sieve or cheesecloth. Be sure to place a bowl or large container underneath one of the two to catch the milk!
You may want to strain your milk more than once - depending on the type of consistency you prefer. Simply store oat milk in the refrigerator, and it will last for about a week! The container should have a top on it.
