Hi! I have never had almond milk before and I was thinking about trying it. But I am not sure which one to try first...there is sweetened, unsweet, vanilla...What do you suggest? Thanks!

The "Blue Diamond" brand is really good! I like their "Original" (NOT the original unsweetened). I find the "Vanilla" a bit to sweet for my taste so I mix 3/4 cups "Original" and 1/4 cup of "Vanilla". Only a few more calories but it gives it a little for flavor. So cheers :drinker:
Hope I help :flowerforyou:

Avoid the Almond Breeze variety as it has carageenan in it. Otherwise, it's really tasty stuff. Go for the brands with the least sweetening and the shortest list of ingredients.0

I love Silk Almond milk. I use the unsweetened in my smoothies and such and the vanilla in my cereal, to drink, and my coffee. I also love the chocolate as a nice little treat.0

Silk almond milk is my favorite. I use the unsweetened vanilla in my smoothies and original to drink.0

I buy the unsweetened vanilla but I only use it for fruit smoothies. Was never a big milk drinker0

I like the unsweetened vanilla. I liked Blue Diamond and then our Walmart quit carrying it so now I buy the Silk brand. Not as yummy but still good!0

Sil Almond Vanilla or Unsweetened is good.0

I use Silk True almond regular and like it just fine. It isnt sweet at all, has very little taste really. I use it in all my cooking as well. I would think the unsweetened would be just as good and flavored ones for drinking out of a glass. Just try them.0

I was a fan of Almond Breeze, but found it was going bad way to fast!!! Tried a few others and love silk! I use the Vanilla, as I dont drink enough to really worry about calories. (maybe 1/2-1 cup a day) I drink it on its own and in cereal if I have it or shakes.0

A friend here on MPF talked me into trying it out, It's goooood! She was so right. IO would try vanilla if you like regular milk. Switching from whole (or any milk that tastes like milk) good tasting milk to unsweetend unflavored might be too large of a jump at first try. I like the sweetness of the vanilla, plus it's only 90 cals a cup!0

I like unsweetened with cereal or baking, chocolate by itself, and sweetened in my coffee0

Blue Diamond Unsweetened Vanilla. I always mix it with Hershey's LIte Choco syrup or use it in protein shakes.0
-
I drink So Delicious Almond Plus (Vanilla Flavor) I really like it in cereal, to drink and in coffee.0

Side note: drop a scoop of whey protein into a cup of almond milk, whip 'er up good... practically tastes like a fast food milkshake.0

It's an acquired taste. To ease yourself into it, I would start with the original flavor, not the unsweetened original. I use Silk and love all of them. I was a bit startled at how bitter the unsweetened original is, but I got used to it and like it now.0

So Delicious Vanilla Almond Milk is the bomb!!!! Silk Vanilla Almond not so much i'm just saying0

I choose the Silk Unsweetened Almond Milk. It has only 35 calories per 8 oz. I was never a big milk drinker but this is perfect for my cereal, cooking, baking, anything I would have used my skim milk for previously.
I also use the Blue Diamond Unsweetened Vanilla which is 40 calories per 8 oz. Again, I don't drink it straight up so it is perfect for my uses.
I LOVE the Blue Diamond Almond Milk/Coconut Milk Blend!!!!! This is perfect for drinking cold! I also use this when I make a mango smoothie... YUM!!!!! And anything I want to add coconut to for flavor works wonderfully with this mixture. This is 60 calories per 8 oz.0 -
I like Blue Diamond Unsweetened Vanilla
super low calorie too0 -
I use Aldi's brand sweetened vanilla. I use it on cereal and just to drink. I like me some sugar!0
