Califa Farm Chocolate Protein Almondmilk: Once in while, I get a craving for chocolate milk, and this single-serving beverage was the perfect amount to satisfy my latest craving. As a non-dairy drink, it's looser than your typical chocolate milk but has a distinct nutty aftertaste. It's also sweeter than I personally prefer but not atypical for chocolate milk. Fortified with vitamins and a substantial amount of protein (6g). 3.5/5.0

The consistency is a bit thin but not surprisingly so for a non-dairy milk. Separately, I also tried the original (sweetened) flavor, which was overly sweet, so if you prefer lighter drinks like me, definitely go for the unsweetened. I used this almond milk to make chia seed puddings but also to drink on its own. 3.5/5.0

That's likely the case with Cape Cod Ginger, a company specializing in carbonated, organic, cold-pressed ginger drinks of various fruit flavors including passion fruit and pineapple.

Just enough chocolate chips - doesn't feel like a dessert (that's a good thing). A quality snack. 3.5/5.0

I purchased their oolong milk tea at 0% sweetness since the boba are already steeped in brown sugar. The boba had a pretty good texture, though it was a tad soft for my taste. The oolong tea had a refreshing herbal flavor yet was also creamy and rich from the frothed milk. Overall, a solid and very traditional milk tea. 3.5/5.0

The flavor is sort of like a fruit-equivalent of Mountain Dew in that the sugar and flavor concentration is shocking, but I actually kind of like it. It strikes a really good balance of fruity and creamy and does taste like (an extremely sweet) version of a fruit soda float. In that way, it's exactly as advertised. But I can't drink much of it in a single sitting because it's so sweet. 3.5/5.0
