notes
- Unsweetened coconut milk or oat milk (gluten free or regular) can be used in place of unsweetened almond milk. Additionally, you could use coconut water instead of regular water to boost electrolytes, hydration, and potassium!
- For the ginger, feel free to add according to your taste buds. A strong ginger flavour is something that some palettes enjoy, and others can’t handle. If you’re sensitive, start with one piece and taste.
