When Dream sent me the Dream Ultimate Almond I was super excited and surprised to get it in three different flavors-Original, Unsweetened and Vanilla. Unlike almond milk it is thicker and has four times more California almonds which gives it 5g of protein in every cup. I have had many options in my mind to use them in cooking sweet and savory dishes and I even tried making two recipes i.e. these brownies and Strawberry Almond Popsicle (will post the recipe soon). Both recipes came out excellent and tasted awesome. In almond brownies, I have replaced milk/eggs with the Dream Ultimate Almond and it turned out really well. The brownies were delicious, mouth melting blended with sweetness and aroma of almond. It is my personal experience and suggestion that this beverage is an awesome and an excellent vegan substitute for milk and eggs.
If you want to try this tasty and healthy beverage you can easily find it at Whole Foods and also these nutritious products are coming soon to Sprouts Farmers Market stores.
