Product Information

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.

Regardless of the milk alternative you are using, we would always recommend warming it slightly to avoid any chance of curdling - (with the exception of oat milk). This is incredible. It’s not watery at all, it acts like regular dairy would and it doesn’t overpower the coffee. The natural sweetness of the oats shines through with this. If you like coconut then this could be for you! It tends to be quite sweet so, if you like that kind of thing, then you could be on to a winner. Like almond, however, the taste is pretty distinctive and if you are drinking a coffee that has predominant flavours like, hazelnut, vanilla or cherry, the taste of the coconut might overpower that of your coffee.It does get better as you drink it, and turns out to be quite refreshing and light. But the acidity is just way too high and distracting. 3.5/5 Rebel Kitchen Barista This is ever so slightly watery, but it doesn’t matter much. Because this is one of the only barista plant-based milks that don’t just complement the coffee, but actually make it shine. Cold brew has its own unique taste profile and brings out something quite different from the milk when compared to espresso-based cold drinks. Iced filters have a lovely acidity but don’t make for a great conductor for milk-testing. 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.

Sproud Barista tastes like dairy-based coffee drinks in a good, wonderful way. 5/5 Read our take on how blending Sproud with milkadamia makes the best plant-based milk for tea and coffee. Cold brew Rice milk is pretty watery and also slightly sweet. It’s quite neutral in flavour too. It does not, in any shape or form, have a creamy texture so if you are looking to replace milk with a non-dairy alternative, rice milk probably isn’t for you. I used equal parts cold brew concentrate and milk for each test to determine the milk’s influence on flavour and texture. Almond Breeze Barista
