About this deal

Without the latter, alt-milk tends to split in coffee, since the pH level of the beans is usually lower than that of the milk. The additives allow the milk to froth and steam as traditional dairy would. But this also means that sometimes, barista versions of plant-based milk don’t taste great on their own. Those extra ingredients are designed to suit its flavour in coffee and ability to froth, which is why I didn’t taste-test the milks plain. It doesn’t taste beany at all, instead exhibiting dairy-like notes that elevate the flavour of the espresso. And that’s exactly what you look for in a good barista milk. 5/5 Upgrade your vegan pantry and treat yourself with luxury products like Happy Happy Soy Boy. Minor Figures The flavour feels slightly artificial and overly oaty, and there are vivid notes of pea protein. Combined, these take over the coffee’s flavour. Making coconut milk cold foam is very easy, and it makes for one amazing cup of coffee. Ingredients Required Rude Health is one of the two brands on this list with multiple barista milks on offer (the other being Alpro). The brand nominated its barista almond blend for this test.

And that price is reflected by the ingredients list, which, given the milk’s effectiveness in this test, is stunning. At least 15% non-GMO soybeans (almost double the amount most barista soy milks have), brown sugar, sea salt, and calcium carbonate. Read how Ozone is reusing its coffee sustainably with a traditional technique. Minor FiguresThe coconut milk froths well, but not as much as you’d expect — this is essentially a blend of soy and coconut milk, and the protein in the soybeans help with the frothing. It tastes good, but the sweetness of the oats overtakes any flavour lent by the almonds. It also takes focus away from the coffee, which is a shame. 2.5/5 Sproud Barista Sort of. I’ll answer the acidity question in the flavour bit of the review. Oaty Bruce takes a minute to froth and form foam, and when it does, it is quite bubbly. These bubbles never really settle, however much you tap. Don’t worry, the fat is healthy medium chain triglycerides and very good for your health. Can You Make Milk Foam With Coconut Milk?

This is the hardest milk to find. You can’t find Happy Happy Soy Boy in any supermarket or health store in the UK. That’s because, as the brand explained to The Vegan Review, it’s primarily marketed as a foodservice product and is only available in coffee shops that use it as their house soy milk. Alpro’s barista coconut milk fuses well with the coffee, creating a homogeneous consistency. It doesn’t have the same sweetness you associate with coconut milk, but it does highlight the bitter notes of the cold brew more. Still, all in all, it’s a pretty refreshing drink. 3.5/5 Califia Farms Oat Barista Regular alternative milks usually curdle or don’t foam and froth so well. What Alternative Milk Is Best For Cold Foam? With Blue Diamond’s Almond Breeze Barista, a strong, roasted almond flavour comes through the drink. I’m not sure if the nuts are actually roasted.

Holy crap, this is good. This is really, really good. Happy Happy Soy Boy is quite possibly the best soy milk I’ve ever had.
