If you are allergic to dairy milk or just  looking to try something new and delicious, I have great news for you.
Silk Pure Almond is now on the shelves of your local grocer. Or maybe I should  say 'flying off the shelves! " When I went to pick up the Silk Pure Almond, there were only three cartons left. I ended up picking up one carton of the regular and coming back again when I knew the Vanilla Silk Pure Almond was back in stock. Here are the some of the ways my family and I have been enjoying this great new product.
  • Ice cold, in a tall glass. Silk Pure Almond. tastes great. The regular tastes just as good , if not better, than dairy milk. The vanilla tastes sweet like a vanilla milkshake.
  • Smoothies. Yes we have tried both varieties of the Silk Pure Almond  in our blender. Strawberry bananas and also blueberries. My kids loved the smoothies so much, we made them FOUR days in a row!
  • With our cereal.
  • Pouring a small amount in a dish over strawberries. (my personal, favorite, sweet treat!)
  •  Using it instead of flavored creamer in my coffee.
Almond Milk has only 60 calories per glass. The Vanilla Almond milk has only 90 calories per glass. Also Almond Milk can be substituted for milk in  recipes. Cakes, soups, muffins! Cook and bake to perfection with few calories !  Here are a few  to get you started:  Pure Almond recipes
Also there are many benefits when it comes to Almond milk. Here are a few:

  • Each glass of Silk Pure Almond is an excellent source of antioxidants and provides as much calcium and Vitamin D as dairy milk with absolutely no cholesterol, saturated fat, dairy or soy.
  •  Each serving of Silk Pure Almond provides 50% of the recommended daily value of Vitamin E. Vitamin E is an important antioxidant that helps support normal heart and brain function. Also Vitamin E promotes a healthy complexion.
  • Almonds are recognized by health professionals as a nutritious addition to a healthy diet. Almonds have more protein and fiber than any other tree nut.

I've tried Silk Pure Almond Vanilla and love it. Almond milk is the only kind of milk I drink now. It tastes so much better than regular milk.
