Awesome, thanks for sharing! It's better to used almonds without the skin as it's full of tannin. You could place the almonds in a blender with the alcohol for 30 seconds and let it sit for the prescribed time and then strain. You'd probably get a higher yield. Dehydrate the almond pulp and use the almond flour for baking biscotti. You could do the same with the coconut.

A way that we live cheaply is by making our own pizza dough. It costs less than a dollar to make compared to buying pizza pies for $10 & up. Cam batch makes the dough, portions out ten pizza pie doughs at a time, wraps it up and puts it in the freezer. If we want pizza, we put the dough in fridge to defrost to be ready for dinner the next day. ALSO, making our own marinara sauce. Same concept.

For the almond this will be a very mild flavour. You need to use apricot kernels. Other pits may work as well but not as strong as apricot kernels. Look up noyaux.

I did what is called floral bouquet or/aka wedding bouquet extract which is citrus, almond, and vanilla...it sounds strange but it is so amazing for cakes and cookies...I save all different citrus peels and freeze them til I am ready to make my extracts...I use lemon, lime, orange, tangerine, and grapefruit ...saving the peels when we eat the fruit...it makes the most amazing citrus extract....I make the almond, vanilla, and citrus extract then mix it in equal parts...I recommend everyone this floral bouquet extract...I also made edible rose extract which is used in Greek pastry like Baklava. just use pesticide-free edible roses the hips and petals

@@suburbanhomesteaderwy-az - I got my coconut from a store in the Phoenix Metro Area called AJ's, and I've seen them at Sprouts and Trader Joe's from time to time. Believe me when I say the fresh is always the way to go. I used a potato peeler and also a spoon to scrape it out like you do a pumpkin. Kinda hard to bust open though and break it into chunks. Try making MINT Extract next. It is fantastic. Use fresh organic mint. just smash on the stems [not the leaves] a little with a teaspoon, on a piece of parchment paper, and put the entire sprigs into the jar and cover it like you usually do. Use enough to take you around 3/4ths the way up your jar, but not packed in solid. Give them a little seeping room.. Remember the longer you let your batches macerate the lower the alcohol content. That is why 6 months to a year is recommended for extracts to age out properly.
