Organic Non-Dairy Rice Beverage

"Much like in the world of plant-derived meat alternatives or gluten-free bread, it would be difficult to overstate how many advances have been made in the field of non-dairy beverages recently. Even in just the past few years, we’ve seen tremendous strides in improved flavors, smoother textures, and more mixable consistencies. There’s truly never been a better time to be a fan of non-dairy beverages, which is why we surmised it was high time to refresh some of our standby dairy alternatives—because whether you’re lactose intolerant, vegan, or just prefer the taste of non-dairy beverages, we want to be sure you have the tastiest and most versatile options available to you. To that end, please welcome to our shelves Trader Joe’s Organic Non-Dairy Rice Beverage! Made via a process of grinding rice through a mill, then filtering the ground rice and dissolving it in water, this Organic Rice Beverage offers a superlatively smooth consistency and lightly sweet flavor, but contains no lactose, gluten, or animal products of any kind. And to make it an even more apt alternative to milk, our supplier enriches each batch with calcium and vitamins A, D, and B12. We recommend using it in any (and we mean any!) context that calls for milk: baking, pouring over cereal, mixing coffee drinks or smoothies, making savory sauces, or, of course, simply drinking by the glass."
