The oat drinks offered by Oatly have expanded to include a 'Barista Edition,' which was made as coffee shops increasingly use or offer oat-based beverages.
The oat-based beverage was made to be easily foamed, a feature that many other non-dairy milk options tend not to have. With some light heating and whisking, the Barista Edition Oat Drink can make the perfect addition to any type of latte that the user is trying to whip up. The product is rich in saturated fat, which is what helps it hold its foam in place, and not separate once it has been splashed into a coffee beverage.
The Barista Edition Oat Drink is plant-based, sustainable and contains no GMO's – much like the rest of the Oatly brand's products.
