Another Great Milk Substitute
You may remember that I blogged back in July about Calorie Countdown milk, a low-carb, low calorie milk great for those on a diet. Well, at my local health food store I was looking through the various soy milks when I came upon Blue Diamond Almond Breeze. I found a vanilla version that was unsweetened - and decided to try it.
The Taste
Despite being low in calories, the Almond Breeze was creamy and smooth. It’s not sweet, but the almond taste reminded me a little bit of ice cream - maybe butter pecan? (I know, I can’t tell my nut flavors apart sometimes).
