Barista milk is created to have ultra-frothy, creamy and smooth qualities that make rich cups of coffee and lattes, and with the rise in plant-based beverages, a number of alternative milk brands are now introducing barista-friendly products of their own. Earth's Own makes a variety of beverages with nuts, soy and oats, and its newest creation is 'Barista Oat,' a gluten-free, plant-powered milk substitute that's especially great for steaming and foaming to create lattes.
The qualities of the product help to create creative latte art, a stable consistency even with changing temperatures, a neutral flavor that plays well with coffee and a fully, creamy mouthfeel. The vegan-friendly latte product featuring oats grown by Canadian farmers is not only dairy-free, but also made without nuts and soy.
