Silk is a brand that's quite well-known for its nut-based beverages, but now it's expanding its portfolio of milk alternatives with a brand new type of drink.
The assortment from Silk includes a range of soy, almond and coconut milk alternatives, but now the brand is embracing hybrids with its new Nutchello range. Coconut, cashews and almonds are blended with flavorful beverage types like Caramel Almond + Cashew and Dark Chocolate + Walnut.
Unlike many milk substitutes on the market, these nut milks are prepared without any casein and carrageenan, as well as artificial colors or flavors. As Silk puts it, there's no "funny business" in these wholesome nut beverages. However, the nut-based drinks make satisfyingly low-sugar and low-calorie options.
