How to Choose the Best Dairy-Free Milk for Your Diet and Lifestyle
Did you know that over half of the global population is lactose-intolerant? It’s a large part of what’s driving the growing shift toward plant-based milk alternatives. While many once may have been unattuned to the discomforts of lactose sensitivity or simply accepted the bloating and stomach pains, today’s consumers have access to a wide array of plant-based options—ranging from milk to ice cream and yogurt. Grocery store shelves are now packed with a variety of plant-based milks, from familiar favorites like almond, soy, and oat, to more unique options like coconut and pistachio. In this guide, we'll help you choose the best Three Trees organic plant-based milks for your diet and preferences.
Three Trees Organic Unsweetened Almondmilk: A Classic, Nutritious Choice
Almond milk is one of the most popular plant-based milk alternatives, and for good reason. Made from skinless organic almonds, filtered water, and French Grey Salt, Three Trees Unsweetened Almondmilk is a creamy, light option that pairs well with a variety of recipes, from smoothies to baked goods. Almond milk is naturally low in calories, making it a great choice for those looking to reduce their caloric intake without sacrificing flavor. It’s also rich in vitamin E, an antioxidant that promotes healthy skin and supports the immune system.
Best For: Almond milk is ideal for those seeking a low-calorie, nutrient-rich option that works well in both sweet and savory dishes. It's also a great choice for people with nut allergies or those who are sensitive to gluten or dairy.
How to Enjoy: Almond milk is versatile and can be used in coffee, smoothies, cereals, or simply as a refreshing glass of milk. It’s also a fantastic base for plant-based lattes and milkshakes.
Three Trees Organic Oil-Free Oat Milk: Creamy and Naturally Sweet
Oat milk has become a favorite among non-dairy drinkers. Many love it for its unique flavor; it has a smooth texture and tastes naturally sweet. Oatmilk really started entering mainstream culture as a dairy replacement in coffee shops. Made from oats and water, oatmilk has a thicker, creamier consistency than almond milk, making it perfect for coffee drinks like lattes or for adding richness to smoothies and baked goods. Oat milk is also a great source of fiber, which can help with digestion and keep you feeling full for longer. Three Trees Oil-Free Oatmilk is free of oils, making it the cleaner choice compared to other plant based oat milks. And, it still retains a rich creaminess due to the addition of almonds.
Best For: Oat milk is an excellent choice for those who prefer a creamier, more indulgent option with a naturally sweet taste. It’s also perfect for those looking to add more fiber to their diet.
How to Enjoy: Use Three Trees Oil-Free Oatmilk or Oil-Free Oat Barista in your morning coffee for a smooth, frothy latte or blend it into your favorite smoothie for extra creaminess. It also works wonderfully in baking recipes and desserts like puddings and pancakes.
Three Trees Organic Pistachio Milk: Uniquely Nutty
Pistachio milk is a rising star in the plant-based milk world, known for its distinctive nutty flavor and creamy texture. Made from pistachios and water, this milk has a richer, more savory taste compared to almond or oat milk, giving it a unique edge in the world of plant-based alternatives. Pistachios are high in protein and healthy fats, making pistachio milk a great source of nourishment. It also contains essential vitamins and minerals like vitamin B6, magnesium, and potassium.
Best For: Pistachio milk is perfect for those who want to experiment with different flavors or are looking for a more savory and nutrient-dense option. Its rich taste makes it an excellent addition to both savory and sweet dishes.
How to Enjoy: Enjoy pistachio milk in your coffee or use it as a base for smoothies. It pairs well with baked goods like cookies and cakes, or you can even use it to add richness to savory dishes like soups or sauces.
Three Trees Organic Unsweetened Soy Milk: The Protein Powerhouse
Soy milk has been a staple in plant-based diets for decades, and it remains one of the most nutritionally balanced dairy alternatives. Three Trees Unsweetened Soymilk is made from two ingredients, organic soybeans and filtered water. Seriously, that’s it. We pack our soymilk with soybeans, which is why 1 cup serving of Three Trees Soymilk has a whopping 12g of protein. That’s an incredible amount of protein per serving, especially looking at whole cow’s milk, which has only 8g protein per 1 cup serving! Our dense concentration of soybeans also gives our soymilks a smooth, creamy texture and a nutty, bean-y taste – just like how soymilk should be!
Best For: Those who need a high-protein, nutrient-dense plant milk that closely mimics the creaminess and consistency of dairy milk.
How to Enjoy: Perfect for coffee and tea, smoothies, cereal, and baking. It’s also a great base for savory dishes like soups and sauces.
