- Add almond milk to a medium pot over high heat. Bring to a boil, and continue boiling for about 5 minutes, whisking frequently, or until reduced by half.
- Mix together cornstarch and water in a small glass. Remove the pot from the heat, and slowly whisk in the cornstarch slurry. Return the pot to the heat, and boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until thickened.
- Remove from the heat, and stir in liquid monk fruit, vanilla extract, and salt. Pour into a mason jar, and let it cool uncovered at room temperature for 30 minutes before covering with a lid and transferring to the fridge.
