Lidl’s Vemondo Soya Unsweetened Plant-Based Drink is a delicious and super cheap plant-based milk that only cost me £0.50 when writing! This is a fourth of the price of other plant-based brands and half that of dairy milk. It’s a great deal, and it tastes like your standard soya milk- you may, however, have to sweeten it if you don’t like the aftertaste.
Despite soya milk having a profound ‘beany’ aftertaste, I had chilled the milk before drinking and didn’t notice the aftertaste. It was pretty enjoyable and great to drink plain with a sandwich on the side. Though the soya milk is not as creamy as I’d like- it’s to be expected for the price, however, it does make a killer latte! You will notice the aftertaste in any coffee or milk teas you make with the soya milk, but you get used to it eventually.
This is a steal as it’s half the price of the ‘original’ (or sweetened) version, and if you want to sweeten it, you can simply add sugar or any sugar alternative you have. I had also tested this in a curry I made and it did help to add some thickness to it- so I believe you can use this for baking for anything that requires milk.
I’ve left the ingredients to the product below for you to check and the nutritional information as well!
