Almondmilk Beverage

Almondmilk beverage is a plant-based drink made from ground almonds and water. The almonds are typically soaked, blended with water, and then strained to create a milky liquid. It is often fortified with vitamins and minerals.

Manufacturers use almondmilk beverage as a dairy milk alternative in a variety of products. It serves as a base for smoothies, cereals, baked goods, and coffee drinks. It is also sold as a standalone beverage.

Almondmilk beverage is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. It is a source of calcium and vitamin D if fortified. JECFA has evaluated almond protein, but not almondmilk beverage specifically. While generally considered healthy, it contains fewer calories and protein than dairy milk.
