Almond Cow is the answer for anyone who loves plant-based milk, but not the mysterious ingredients in store-bought kinds or the hassle of making it themselves. Nut milk from the store is overpriced, generates a lot of plastic waste, and filled with questionable ingredients, so Almond Cow created a machine that makes plant-based milk simple, fun, and effortless. All you do is add nuts and filtered water into the machine, and you have homemade nut milk in less than a minute. You can get your Almond Cow machine at bit.ly/almondcowchristina and use the code "CHRISTINA" for $15 off your machine! Want in on all of the health benefits of mushrooms?!
