With the growing demand for [dairy-free products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iced-coffee-range), the new lattes make it easier for consumers to enjoy almond and oat milk-infused drinks on the go. The new Silk Lattes come in two tasty varieties: Espresso and Mocha. Both are made with a blend of [cold-brew Arabica coffee](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/so-delicious-x-stok-cold-brew-coffee) and espresso for a smooth, but rich coffee flavor. To make the drinks creamy, the lattes are infused with a combination of dairy-free [oat milk and almond milk](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/protein-vanilla-almond-latte). The Mocha variety of the drink also contains three different types of cocoa for an indulgent chocolate flavor. The new Silk Lattes are packaged in recyclable plant-based bottles and can be found at retailers nationwide.
