Trader Joe's Non-Dairy Chocolate Oat Beverage, 946mL

We live in an age when dairy substitutes have become so tasty, you don’t have to be sad about missing milk! Case in point: TJ's Non-Dairy Chocolate Oat Beverage. Inspired, of course, by the success of TJ's original Non-Dairy Oat Beverages, it’s a milk-like drink that’s made from water and hydrolyzed, whole, rolled oats. (Hydrolysis is the breaking down of the oats’ starches and conversion into proteins & sugars).

For this Chocolate version of their oat-ally awesome classic Oat Beverage, TJ's also adds cocoa & cane sugar, a pinch of salt, a few natural flavours, and a bit of gellan gum to further flavour & thicken the beverage—naturally. The end result is a chocolatey-brown beverage that’s smooth & creamy in texture, and sweet to the taste. Not only is it good to drink (or to enjoy in coffee, protein shakes, or even cereal), it’s also gluten free, lactose free, kosher (pareve), and vegan!
