*****************************************
Green Juice Preparation: Place all ingredients through a Juicer. (Lou recommends the Green Star Elite Juicer)
Gorilla Milk Preparation: Fill the Blender with 1/2 Green Juice and 1/2 Almond Coconut Milk. Blend and Enjoy!!
**You can adjust the level of green juice to your needs and slowly work your way up to a 50/50 ratio!
Lou’s Tip: *If you do not have a juicer, it is OK to use a blender, though you may have to use purified water to get the mixture to blend. If you use a blender, pour juice through a nut bag or fine strainer and collect juice in a bowl.

Almond Coconut Yogurt
1 Cup Almonds (Soaked 24 hours)
1 1/2 Cups Fresh Coconut Meat (From Young Thai Coconut) with Water
1/2 Tsp. LiyfBiotic
2 TBS. Liyf Essentials
Preparation: Blend ingredients in a blender until smooth. Strain with an 8 inch strainer to sift out any coconut shells or almond skins. Pour the mixture into a sealable container & allow the mixture to stand, covered with a paper towel, for 3 hours on a warm day and 4-6 hours on a cool day. (This will allow the fermentation). Use the nut culture on fruit, in smoothies, pates, salad dressings, or eat plain. Seal and store the remainder in the refrigerator. The nut culture will keep up to 3-4 days but will continue to get more cultured each day. Once it culturizes it will have a slight zing to it, and each day that zing will get stronger. If the yogurt turns pink DO NOT EAT IT.
Eat from 1 to 2 cups each day. For athletes or people trying to build lean muscle can eat more.
*Keep about 2 tablespoons of the mixture as a starter to add to the next batch, which will produce a more active culture – and in a shorter amount of time. You will not need to use Liyfbiotic powder if you are using a small amount from the previous batch.
