  • I love everything I have tried so far from Califia Farms. Their almond milk, their creamers, and their new drink options like the orange cream refresher are all delicious and nutritious options. The creamers in particular have fun flavors like birthday cake that add a great element to my coffee routine.

  • I will give 5 stars for their organic almond milk, but only 3 for their non-organic products, which contain gums and oils that aren’t that good for us. Anyway, if you’ve never tried truly Just Organic almond milk and a little sea salt mixed in, you might be surprised by its different taste.

  • I've tried three drinks from this brand, but overall I've liked what I've tried. The matcha almond latte doesn't taste overly sweet and instead tastes grassy enough like matcha that I enjoy it. The caffeine level in this is relatively low which is fine. The price for the drink is pretty expensive, but otherwise I would consider getting it again. The complete plant-based milk variety, including the kids variant, is also very expensive, and I don't see much of a difference between them and other plant-based milks on the market. The taste for this one is also slightly weird and not a favorite. I had to drink it with a flavoring mixed in.

  • Califa makes great coffee products and creamers. I enjoy their nitro draft latte it has a nice smooth taste and flavor. It’s gluten free and vegan! They also have a cafe oat milk that goes well for your morning latte.

  • I'm a cold brew aficionado. It's pretty much the only kind of coffee I drink. Whenever I travel anywhere, I always buy a bottle of Califia Farms Cold Brew because it tastes amazing and gives me access to my caffeine fix without having to spend $6 on a coffee at Starbucks. I've tried many of their varieties of cold brew, even with oat milk, all amazing!

  • Califa’s Barista long-life cartons are a non-dairy staple in our house. They froth beautifully, taste amazing in coffee, and have that creamy texture that actually feels like a treat instead of a compromise. I love that they’re shelf-stable until opened, which makes it easy to stock up without worrying about fridge space. It’s hands down the best oat milk for lattes, and even the coffee snobs in my life agree.

  • The expresso ,its smooth, balanced flavor, low acidity, and convenience. It's made from 100% Arabica coffee beans and is unsweetened, allowing for customization. The cold brewing process results in a fresh, clean taste without bitterness.

  • It has a slight sweet taste and enjoyable to drink. It is not watery and I didn't see any separation. The package design is unique and makes it easy to find. This is definitely much tastier than any of the plant-based milk I have tried. This also has added nutrients, truly making it a complete and nutritious drink.

  • This is my favorite Almond milk, I like the light feel and can easily finish a glass without feeling full. Some alternative milks especially oat are just too thick for drinking. The Almond flavor is mild and delicious unsweetened.

  • I received this for free through social nature. I tried this straight out of the bottle and noticed the texture was thicker and it tasted like soy milk from an Asian supermarket. To my surprise no soy was used but rather chickpea, fava and pea. They actually make a point that it is soy free, nut free and top allergen free. I did like that it is infused with benefits like omega-3 and prebiotics that you don’t get with other milks. I also tried this with granola and it did the job adding some moisture and creaminess without compromising taste.

  • Almond milk is delish. Tried a little on my pancake mix. Just thank me later :) but yeah it’s delicious with my Cheerios. Might just be a me thing too because I love all Almond milk. I haven’t tried the oat milk yet but might soon.

  • This used to be my go-to but I switched over to another oat milk. My grocery store was out of mine so I bought Califia and am pretty disappointed. I'm not sure if the recipe changed but the milk is oily and not very creamy. It tastes okay.

  • The only Oat Milk Creamer that tastes delicious with coffe with ZERO After Taste ! I always drink my coffee black because i am lactose intolerant and hate a sugary coffee with a passion ! Califia Farms has been in my fridge ever since i tried it a few months ago I highly recommend it

  • I enjoy getting the Califia Farms Cold Brew. The Blonde and Medium roast are my favorite. The cold brew makes my mornings a heck of a lot easier and creates less stress and mess in the kitchen. I love to pair with Nutpods creamer. Delish!

  • Califia Farms makes my favorite oat and almond milks. Super creamy and delicious.

  • Califia Farms milk is a staple in my fridge! Whether it’s their almond, oat, or coconut varieties, the flavor is always smooth, creamy, and incredibly fresh. I love how well it works in coffee, smoothies, cereal, and even baking. Plus, it’s dairy-free, non-GMO, and made with clean ingredients, which makes it an easy, guilt-free choice. The packaging is sleek and easy to pour, and it tastes way better than other plant-based milks I’ve tried. Definitely a five-star product all around!

  • Love this brand! Clean ingredients and high quality. I think this is worth the money. I also like how they are adding more products so there is more variety

  • Their unsweetened almond milk is up there among my top plant-based milks on the market. Good texture, good taste, and doesn't seem watery. Perfect for my smoothies and chia seed pudding <3

  • The califa farms almond milk barista blend is so delish. Just wish it didn't have cane sugar in it, so that's why I buy their unweetend almond milk instead.

  • If some nice organic whole milk is not available, then I am certainly okay with reaching over for some Califia Farms barista blend oat"milk". Very creamy and nice flavor. Overall pretty solid products.
