Choosing between them
For coffee, the barista versions foam better and are less likely to split than the standard drinks. For cereal and smoothies, the unsweetened drinks keep added sugar out. Check whether a drink is fortified with calcium if it replaces dairy in your diet, as not every plant drink is. People with nut allergies should check the label carefully on almond and cashew drinks, and those avoiding gluten should check oat products.
For a comparison of plant drinks across brands, see dairy-free milk and the guide to choosing a plant-based milk.
