SPROUD Dairy Free Milk BARISTA Flavor, Vegan Milk with Plant-Based Pea Protein, Shelf Stable Non-GMO, 1 Liter (Pack of 6)

This is my favorite milk alternative that I have ever tried (although I realize that's a very personal preference). The texture is soft and creamy. The price a little too high though.

I got a fully automatic espresso machine but the amount of sugar in regular dairy, paired with the fact that I was lactose intolerant, was an issue. This is BETTER than milk in my lattes and my Cuban cortaditos. It has a smooth taste, a little bit like evaporated milk to me, but not really. All I can say is you just have to try it. For me, it's the best plant based milk for espressos that I have ever had with 1/3 the sugar. I went on subscription and after a couple of weeks of lattes and cafecitos with this, I have gone from 3 months to two month intervals. I believe I will be a customer of theirs for YEARS. I love this. Good job, Sproud! Please keep this in stock!

Given Oatly's repeated inability to keep its product available—as well as that company's recent decision to preference Starbucks over individual customers who've been buying their product for years—I decided to try Sproud Barista as an alternative. So far I'm impressed. It's a different product with a different taste than oatmilk, and so it's not a seamless replacement. But Sproud is working really well for my primary need: as a steamed milk for cappuccinos and cortados. It microfoams really well—better than Oatly Barista in fact (though it takes a little practice to learn how it wants to be steamed to get just the right consistency). It blends nicely and carries the espresso flavor well. So, as a replacement for Oatly in my hot espresso drinks, it's great. However, I don't like it as much as Oatly for cold espresso drinks (e.g., iced lattes). With those, Sproud Barista's subtle pea taste and texture, at least for me, doesn't blend as nicely in a cold drink. Though it may be that's only the case for the Barista variety; perhaps that's really only best for hot drinks. Regardless, I'm happy for the alternative and appreciate getting to work with a new company after the disregard Oatly has shown for its individual customers as of late.

This is the only cow's milk substitute that my family likes, but almost half of the time we receive it, either the carton has gotten punctured (see pic - the entire inner and outer boxes were wet on delivery) OR Amazon packs other subscribe and save items loose in a box with this very heavy item and they get crushed. If I could find this barista blend in the store I would happily skip the shipping headaches because the product is definitely great - doesn't curdle in coffee and tastes 'normal' to my kids on cereal.

It's definitely not great with tea as it has a strong flavor (barista edition). It does warm and froth well. I don't drink coffee so can't comment on the use or taste with it.Drinking it by itself, I found it to be an acquired taste. It's nutty, malty, and has a powder like quality from not being refined enough where it makes me cough a little.The shelf life is long but receiving it, certain time has passed already so you have a shorter shelf time with it. And once open, consume within 7 days.And can't just buy 1.

Great taste! Long shelf life and perfect for my daughter who is allergic to dairy.Much better price point than my local store!We use for baking and cooking too as a good substitute!

Really like how this milk brings out the full coffee taste and isn’t too sweet like most oat milks.The thickness of the frothed milk is also a great consistency for a perfect flat white or cortado which I enjoy making every morning.This is now my go to milk after having tried probably 10 different milks.Yeah sure maybe a few of the ingredients could be better like other comments here, but so goes for all plant based milks I feel :)

I like the taste and that the ingredients are good for you. Wish plant milk wasn’t as expensive. I don’t eat dairy or meat. Will buy again.
