mylk
n.— «Making almond milk is incredibly easy once you get your system down and my kids think it is incredibly delicious. They will drink it straight, add it to cereal, or use it to make chocolate milk or banana milk smoothies. Since I use raw organic almonds, I get to rest easy knowing that their milk, or “mylk” as many refer to it, is healthier for their little bodies and healthier for the planet.» —“How to Make Homemade Almond Milk” by Tiffany Washko Eco Child’s Play Jan. 29, 2009.
