MILKS & LIQUIDS
One of the key factors is a fat content of 3% – 4% and the same % for protein. These give an ideal mouth feel and body (check the nebulously named ‘nutrition’ panel).
NO OBJECTIONS ?
STANDARD BLUE TOP MILK.
It works well , gives a very balanced result.
CHAIGUY LIKES ?
ORGANIC FOR THE PLANET.
DAIRY MILKS : The ones that work well for our chai are GOAT (Cilantro brand) - I.M.O. the ultimate), Naturalea, Lewis Rd, Puhoi, Buffalo, Horse, Camel. I am serious about the horse milk. Will trade for chai ..
HIGHER FAT DAIRY - Sheep and Jersey milk make a much mellower chai, so if you like it spicy, use more chai concentrate.
PLANT MILKS.
Boring Oat Milk Barista & Vitasoy oat work well. (They do not contain canola oil).
Bonsoy Soy & Bonsoy Almond milk are also very good with Chai Guy chai . Also All Good, Otis & Oatly.
Otherwise it is a bit hard to get a win here, because the plant milks are generally so thin and variable. They work but you will have to figure it out for each milk. Insert emoji here ..
Adding a fat (coconut oil, cacao butter, olive ,hemp, ghee, MCT, etc) to plant milk somewhere in the process will improve the taste.
SPACE MILK.
Coming soon . Once we have ignored what nature gave us and killed the planet…sorry, but things are getting serious.
