What it is
This is a plant-based beverage made from almonds. It is unsweetened, meaning it does not contain added sugars. The milk alternative is produced by processing almonds with water and other ingredients to create a smooth, drinkable liquid. It is a common choice for those seeking dairy-free options or a lighter beverage alternative. The product is typically found in the refrigerated section of grocery stores.
