About this deal

Sproud Barista blends beautifully with cold brew. It’s not watery at all and doesn’t overtake the flavour of the coffee. Rebel Kitchen’s barista version, at least for frothing, lives up to the hype. It’s a great example of milks formulated specifically for barista use. It froths fantastically, leaving only tiny bubbles that disappear into the silky-smooth microfoam once tapped and swirled.

Unsweetened Goodness : Enjoy the pure taste of almonds without added sugars. With zero grams of sugar per serving, you have the flexibility to customize your drinks to perfection. There’s not a lot of almond flavour, which is due to the fact that there are more oats than almonds in this milk. This isn’t a watery drink, which is a plus, but the flavour is just a little too loud and funky to actually make the coffee shine. 2.5/5 Sproud Barista But as I found in my oat milk test, Califia Farms’s barista edition has a chemical aftertaste that just doesn’t go away. The promising early signs are all steamrolled by this late hit of off-tasting notes. 3/5 Good Hemp BaristaIndulge in Non-Dairy Perfection with Almond Breeze Barista Blend Unsweetened Almond Milk at Wholesale Prices

I used equal parts cold brew concentrate and milk for each test to determine the milk’s influence on flavour and texture. Almond Breeze BaristaAlpro’s Barista for Professionals range has four milks: oat, almond, soy and coconut. I chose the latter for the test as it was recommended to me by the brand. 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. However, just like the previous taste test, the oat milk’s distinct characteristics quietly dominate the coffee. But this is very creamy in mouthfeel, more so than any of the other milks in this test. 4/5 Oaty Bruce

It is slightly bitter, though, and as you drink it, the watery consistency is a bit more noticeable. 3.5/5 Happy Happy Soy Boy Apart from some minute traces of bitterness, this is a fabulous pairing with cold brew. 4.5/5 Rude Health Barista Almond Good Hemp is the UK’s most well-known hemp milk brand. While it does a pretty great oat and hemp blend, it’s not really made for coffee.Balanced Taste: Experience a neutral flavor profile that enhances the natural notes of your coffee without overpowering, letting your brew shine with every sip. And that just goes to show that while Califia Farms’s barista edition is a technically sound oat milk, the flavour is what brings it down. 2.5/5 Good Hemp Barista Unlike most non-barista coconut milks, this doesn’t have too much of a coconutty flavour. So while it doesn’t completely distract from the coffee’s flavour, the milk still dominates the drink slightly. 3.5/5 Califia Farms Oat Barista Alpro Barista Coconut is virtually a blend of soy and coconut. With a base containing 2.9% soybeans, it’s blended with 3.5% coconut milk. There’s added sugar, fructose, sea salt, flavourings, acidity regulators, calcium and stabilisers.

Rude Health’s barista almond milk has an intriguing and impressive ingredients list. Even though it is marketed as an almond milk, its oat content is way higher than the almonds. It’s pretty wild. While the milk and coffee don’t match harmonise in consistency, with a little separation happening, the flavour is out of left field. Dairy-Free Delight : Indulge with a lactose-free and vegan alternative that's gentle on your stomach and the planet, while still delivering that crave-worthy creaminess. We took 12 of the best barista milks in the UK market and tested them in various ways to see which would win the ultimate barista milk showdown. This tastes very interesting. It’s fruity and citrusy, with very prominent notes of grapefruit zest. Initially, it’s very acidic, but it gets better as you drink it.

These tests were filmed for four-and-a-half minutes to determine how well the milk foams up, how long the froth takes to settle, how it mixes with the coffee and whether it splits. Almond Breeze Barista Alt-milk is enjoying a wave of popularity it has never known before. In the UK, The Vegan Society predicts the value of dairy alternatives will double by 2025. Plant-based milk grew thrice as much as traditional dairy in the US last year, penetrating two in five households. But while there are hints of oat in it, this resembles watered-down cold brew with a splash of milk a lot more than an equal parts composition. You don’t taste those weird synthetic notes, but you don’t taste much else either. It’s very average and doesn’t do anything to the coffee in terms of the flavour. Good Hemp Barista has pure malt extract, an ingredient unique to this list, and a 4% hemp seed base. The only other ingredients are an acidity regulator, emulsifier and stabiliser, and the short ingredient list explains the steeper price. Happy Happy Soy Boy
