AlproAlmond Plant-Based Long Life Drink, Vegan & Dairy Free, 1L

haven’t drank cows milk for about four years. this is all i use; for oat/cereal, smoothies, sometimes cooking and just to drink on it’s own when i feel like.you could probably tell from the picture i added that i really like this milk. when i first tried it about six years ago i didn’t like it at all and decided i was never going to drink it again. i decided to give it another go when i cut the dairy milk out altogether and again, at first i didn’t like the taste or even the smell but i kept at it for the healthy side of it. now, i love the taste, i’m so used to it and I enjoy it.whenever the almond milk is on sale i buy four or five of them at a time. amazon fresh started in march of 2017 and from the picture you can see i’ve bought 66 since about to be 68.THREE THUMBS UP!

I personally hate the taste of cows milk and if you are the same I highly recommend this product. It has a great taste and the price is affordable.

This is a tasty non-dairy alternative to cows milk, and perfect for fans of all things nutty. This being my first foray into the world of almond milk, I decided to buy both this and Blue Diamond Almond Breeze Original, 1l so that I could compare the two. Below are my results.Flavour:Both milks have a sweet, slightly nutty taste, though the alpro milk is certainly the stronger of the two. Blue diamond had less of an impact on the flavour profile of the different things that I used it with. If you think that the flavour of the milk adds to food rather than detracts, then alpro wins in this regard. Otherwise, you should go for blue diamondConsistency:Alpro was the creamier of the two milks, with a slightly darker colour and smoother mouthfeel. I'm not sure how this effect is achieved since the almond contents of each is fairly similar, so it must be something else in the ingredients. The blue diamond milk on the other hand is thinner, with a consistency closer to that of skimmed/semi-skimmed milk. The difference did seem to have an impact on the way different foods were effected by the milk, you can read more about that below.Price:There's no escaping the fact that milk alternatives cost at lease double their dairy counterparts, which is a shame and a bit of a wonder. Surely nuts are less costly to grow and maintain than living animals? Either way, I believe alpro usually costs slightly more than blue diamond, although I managed to get them at the same price.Below are some observations on how the milk is with various thingsCorn flakes:Alpro didn't fare so well with the corn flakes, making them soggy more quickly than blue diamond or regular cows milk. I put this down to the fact that it was the thicker of the two, and I personally felt that it made the eating experience worse. While the flavour of the milk is nice, it doesn't go well with soggy corn flakes. The blue diamond worked better, only making the cereal soggy towards the end of the bowl.Bran flakes:The bran flakes were more resistant to getting soggy thankfully. With both milks, the first bite or two gave the impression that the two flavours don't work that great together, but after a few bites you get used to it and it's pretty delicious! Both milks worked well here, and the only separating factor is whether or not you'd prefer a stronger flavour.Porridge:I have my porridge with berries, honey and a little peanut butter, so it was quite difficult to gauge the flavour coming through. It certainly didn't detract from it though, adding just enough flavour to be pleasant. The porridge made with alpro was a little less liquid, with more swollen oats, whereas Blue diamond produced a more runny porridge. One of my favourite things with both, however, is the fact that neither stick to the bottom of the pan like cows milk does, making the cleanup so much easier (nothing beats hemp milk in this regard though)Tea:As far as I can tell, both milks have a pretty similar effect to cows milk when used in tea. The resulting tea tends to be a little darker, with a more translucent effect, like you would get when you compare using skimmed milk to full-fat. Not much to say here. It is a little different, but not by much.Verdict:I personally preferred Blue Diamond milk. It's a little bit cheaper, and is closer to cows milk than alpro. I also didn't want the flavour to be too overpowering which is why I will be opting for the more subtle of the two from now on.If you're had almond milk before however and you know that you love the flavour then go for alpro. Just keep in mind the effects that its thicker consistency might have on things.If you found this review helpful then let me know with a thumbs up! Likewise if you felt it was lacking, then give it a thumbs down. Happy shopping!

Aways buy this

Incredibly more-ish and very versitle, for tea, coffee or baking with. The price on Amazon can be abit dear if you want to bulk buy. I usally get it when it's on sale for £1 each. Instead of £1.80 roughly. Because those 80ps add up quickly. Considering with Amazon Pantry that you pay £3.99 for delivery per box so it gets expensive for a milk alternative. It is really yummy though.

This is a great alternative for milk. Tastes great by itself when cold. I’ve used this for many things and still tastes the same as if I used milk. Very pleased with this product.

Nice but it leave an odd taste in the mouth. I’ll not be buying again!

I really like this brand. Nice taste, easy to store and great price.
