In an effort to make its products more accessible to vegans, Monster’s new Java Monster Farmer’s Oats is made with a non-dairy milk option.

Monster’s new Java Monster Farmer’s Oats beverage is a vegan-friendly energy drink. The drink starts with [rich coffee](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unconform), which is then boosted with a [plant-based version](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oatly-iced-coffees) of Moster's signature energy blend. The ultra-caffeinated drink is then blended with a vegan-friendly [oat milk](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/readytodrink-oat-lattes), which is made by soaking oats and straining them to create a frothy creamer. The Farmer's Oats version of the new drink also boasts notes of cinnamon, brown sugar, and vanilla, which gives it a taste similar to that of an oatmeal cookie.

For vegans looking for a tasty way to caffeinate, the new Java Monster Farmer’s Oats drink is available nationwide as of October 28th.
