'Almond Breeze' introduced a new collection of almond milk products sweetened with real honey. One of the reasons that some consumers avoid [non-dairy milks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unsweetened-coconut) is because of the taste. This lightly sweetened almond blend provides the perfect option for those who prefer their milk on the sweet side.

The 'Hint of Honey' collection from Almond Breeze features the brand's signature almond milk blend with a touch of natural sweetness. Instead of using sugar or artificial sweeteners, the milk products are sweetened with real honey. Although the drinks are not vegan-friendly, they are free of dairy, soy, lactose, gluten, peanuts, eggs, cholesterol, MSG and saturated fats. The new collection comes in three different flavors which include Original, [Vanilla](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/malk-vanilla-almond) and Reduced Sugar.

The product is a great time-saving option for consumers who already add sweeteners to their almond milk when making smoothies or other drinks.
