Best tasting almond milk?

[kitchengoddess8]

I'd love to hear opinions on the best tasting unsweetened almond milk. I'm looking for a good non-dairy, non-soy milk substitute for my matcha tea lattes. I've made my own almond milk in the past, but sometimes it's too much work.

Thanks! I bought the Pacific unsweetened vanilla and didn't love it.

Would coconut milk work?

I love coconut milk, but it seems to be a little too rich for my system. I've had no problems when I cook with coconut oil, so I don't understand what the issue is.

Blue Diamond is my favorite, best flavor texture etc. I have tried Silk too and it is good and to me tastes a bit creamier but is lacking in almond flavor.

Mrs D swears by Blue Diamond Almond Breeze.

So far Blue Diamond is the winner! Has anyone tried the Unsweetened Vanilla?

 

[PrincessFiona60]

Yes, I use it on my cereal, love it.

Nice! Glad to hear that it's tasty. I tried making a matcha latte with the Pacific almond milk, but it curdled just like one reviewer wrote on her blog. Yuck!

Blue Diamond is in my refrigerator.

Tried a few and found I like regular milk better.

Another fan of Blue Diamond almond milk here, too. I love the stuff straight out of the glass, and with cereal.

Oooh! They have an almond coconut blend out now, too. Going to check to see my local grocery store carries it - sounds really good!

Just bought the Blue Diamond unsweetened vanilla and liked it! The real test will be how it tastes with my matcha tea as a warm latte. Will post the results tomorrow!

I also recommend Blue Diamond's Almond Breeze as well. I have several gluten/dairy free recipes that use the chocolate flavour to help the flavour in chocolate cake or brownies and theirs is the most genuine flavour out there.

Believe it or not, it was the first (and only) one I've ever had.

I would love to have a few of those recipes, as I am gluten intolerant. Would you post them or message them to me?

 

[LPBeier]

Sure, no problem. However, right now I am resting a lot and also am a little forgetful so if you don't see them in a couple of days let me know!

Thanks so much! I totally understand. I'm resting a lot, too

Update: I didn't love the matcha latte made with the Blue Diamond unsweetened vanilla, even after I added some of my favorite raw honey. I might try making my own almond milk again and see if there's a difference. I think Blue Diamond is best in smoothies and baked goods.
