# Blended Plant-Based Lattes Silk's Ready-to-Drink Beverages Combine Almond & Oat Milk By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2020-02-18 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plant-based-latte References: [prnewswire](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/silk-enters-the-coffee-category-introduces-new-plant-based-ready-to-drink-lattes-301006661.html) & [silk](https://silk.com/plant-based-products/dairy-free-latte/espresso-latte/) In addition to offering a variety of standalone oat milk and almond milk drinks, Silk is now introducing a pair of ready-to-drink plant-based lattes that combine these nourishing dairy-free milk alternatives. These products are being introduced in Espresso Almond & Oat Latte and Mocha Almond & Oat Latte varieties, both of which feature high-quality, cold-brew Arabica coffee. In the case of the dairy-free mocha drink, three different types of cocoa are used to create a rich, well-balanced flavor. Silk is branding its ready-to-drink lattes as products that help consumers enjoy coffeehouse-quality experiences without the hassle of waiting in line or generating single-use packaging waste, as its recyclable plant-based bottles are made with at least 80% renewable sugarcane. For even more convenience, customers may enjoy the Silk Ready-to-Drink Lattes via Amazon Fresh and have them delivered straight to their door.
