4. Strain the Mixture:

   • Place a nut milk bag, fine-mesh strainer, or cheesecloth over a clean container or pitcher.
   • Pour the blended mixture through the strainer, squeezing or pressing to extract all the liquid.

5. Store and Refrigerate:

   • Transfer the strained oat milk to a sealed container or bottle.
   • Store it in the refrigerator for up to 5-7 days.
