#mylk for the first time! I won it in Week 4 of #veganisnotscary, along with a massive amount of RightRice! I always enjoy trying #plantmilk made with novel ingredients — the variety of nuts, seeds, and legumes that may be used is truly amazing.
This sesame milk had some qualities I enjoyed, as well as a few attributes which I didn’t love. I liked the taste: while it’s distinctively nutty, it’s fairly neutral and pleasant, and the flavor doesn’t seem to clash with coffee. It is, however, rather on the sweet side for me; I was reminded a bit of halva. If you appreciate a hint of sweetness, this may be a good option for you. It has a some vitamin D2 and a good amount of #calcium, too.
The texture could use some work. I noticed that the sesame is “#upcycled,” so I wasn’t expecting perfect smoothness, but it had a very chalky/gritty consistency. I didn’t try frothing or steaming, so I can’t comment on those capabilities. I don’t think this would be an everyday staple for me, but it’s certainly something I’d be open to purchasing again.
I am super grateful to have had the opportunity to try this intriguing #ditchdairy option. They sent a sweet note in the shipment, too!
