Can anyone tell me how it tastes? I want to purchase it but I'm not sure if I should try the original or vanilla. I'm wondering if the original has a nutty flavor or does it actually taste similar to regular milk?

    Ummm it doesn't taste anything like regular milk. It tastes a little nutty. I always go for the vanilla just cause I'm a big chicken on having it plain.

    I did go from Regular Milk to Soy and then tried almond from there so my taste had already changed. Try it...just don't expect it to taste like milk.
  • I LOVE almond milk. I actually like the unsweetened almond milk. Whether you choose sweetened or unsweetened, it's better than cow milk. Also, try coconut milk...that too is really good.

    it doesn't have that sweet flavor like regular whole milk. it's kind of bitter. it's a thicker substance so its not easy for me to eat cereal with. i usually just use it for oatmeal. if you are getting it to drink a glass everyday, or put in cereal, get the flavored one. or try soy.

    I love almond milk. The vanilla is just too sweet for me so I stick with the original.
  • I've had both original and vanilla. I like both about the same. Original des have a nutty taste. After all it is Almond Milk.
  • I find almond milk quite sweet but I don't like sweet things so am quite sensitive to it. Depending on what you are having it in, you can also try oat or rice milk.

    I *love* almond milk and won't go back to regular dairy milk. The vanilla is too sweet for me though. I like the plain kind.

    I bought the vanilla almond milk, it was not good, had a strange after taste. Someone told me it would be good in coffee, but that was not the case either.
  • I get the Unsweetened Vanilla one! I love it

    I used to drink regular cow's milk, then switched to soy, then tried rice milk and finally found almond milk! truly my favourite!
