Then, pour the blended juice through a nut milk bag, squeezing it from the top down to drain the juice into a pitcher. Alternatively, you can pour the blended mixture through a fine mesh sieve, using a spatula to gently push the liquid through the sieve. Discard the collected pulp, or save it and use it for another purpose.
