For a pleasant surprise and a protein-rich beverage, convenient both as a drink in its own right or as an addition to a holiday meal, make an orange and almond nectar. 

Ingredients (for 4 to 6 persons):

• 250 g whole almonds
• 250 ml ml freshly squeezed orange juice
• 1.25 l water
• Sweetener (brown sugar, stevia or honey)

Preparation:

1. Soak the almonds in a closed bowl and let them stay overnight. 
2. In the morning strain the liquid and pour it over into another bowl.
3. Place the almonds with a little strained liquid in a blender or a food processor. Cover and blend for 3 to four minutes, until you obtain a smooth paste. 
4. You have made almond milk. Strain it by means of a strainer or a cheesecloth. Take every drop and use whatever is left as salad dressing.
5. Mix the almond milk with the remaining water in which the almonds soaked overnight. 
6. Add the orange juice and the natural sweetener of your choice. Mix everything well and store in a refrigerator. 

Serve as an iced drink with the main course.
