Silk Pure Almond
The Silk brand is mostly known for their soymilk, which though I don’t buy regularly, is quite good. Especially the chocolate soymilk! Now I’m hooked on Silk Pure Almond. Never had almondmilk? Me neither, until this past week. Now I can’t get enough! It’s a fantastic alternative to regular milk with a uniquely smooth flavor.
Silk soymilk has a nice thickness to it, and so does this almondmilk. It comes in two flavors, Original and Vanilla. Both have a distinct almond flavor, but the latter is definitely sweeter. The Vanilla almondmilk is really good in my coffee. Really good.
Why drink almondmilk?
It’s healthy! Each glass provides an excellent source of natural antioxidants, and as much calcium and vitamin D as dairy milk, with absolutely no cholesterol, saturated fat, dairy or soy. Best of all, a serving of Silk Pure Almond Original almondmilk is only 60 calories, and a delicious glass of Vanilla is just 90.
What makes almondmilk so healthy?
It’s the almonds! Every little nut is a perfectly packaged powerhouse of natural antioxidants and more. Almonds are recognized by health professionals as a nutritious addition to a healthy diet. A serving of almonds provides an excellent source of vitamin E (a natural antioxidant), and a good source of protein and fiber. In fact, almonds are higher in protein and fiber than any other tree nut. Plus, they’re naturally low in saturated fat and cholesterol-free.
How can you use almondmilk?
Besides drinking it straight up in a glass, you can:
- Use it in your morning cereal or oatmeal.
- Add a splash of it to your coffee.
- Toss it in a blender with your favorite fruit for a delicious smoothie.
- Use it as a substitute for milk in most recipes – soups, cakes, muffins, etc.
