I’m not a genius, but the nutritional values seem way off 😏
Roché Woodworth says
Yes, they do! I’ll look into this - thanks!
Lisa K says
Does the 174 kcal/cup take into account that you’re straining out the almond pulp/meal?
Roger says
I have a question about the nutrition information: what is the volume that these measurements refer to? is it for all 6 cups of beverage? or per 8 ounces?
How were these figures derermined?
Roche Woodworth says
Hi Roger, the nutrition information is per serving. So for this recipe, it’s per cup of almond milk. Use the information as a guideline only - we do our best to provide our readers accurate information, but since we use a third-party nutrition calculator, we cannot guarantee that it is 100% accurate. Hope that helps:)

Recipe is super easy - great for using in smoothies. I would like to know what the cals/carbs are but I do not see the nutritional facts anywhere.
Roche Woodworth says
Hi Tina, we are in the process of adding nutritional labels to all our recipes, I’ll bump this one up the list.
Mary says
