I may be one of the only Angelenos left who still enjoys cows’ milk from time to time, but while I love good old-fashioned milk, let’s just say it doesn’t really like me back. I don’t consider myself lactose intolerant by any means, but I certainly feel much better when I stick to plant-based alternatives, like almond, cashew, and oat milk. The other month I was browsing through Instagram stories when I stumbled upon my friend’s #NotAnAd love note raving about a neat-looking contraption called the Almond Cow. She explained that she invested in the Almond Cow nut milk maker after discovering how many questionable additives and fillers go into plant-based milk—a very valid concern, in my opinion.
Naturally, I was instantly intrigued by this cute little nut milk maker (you can even buy the brand’s old-fashioned glass milk carton that is just too darling and an absolute must-have accessory!) so I decided to get my hands on one and give it a spin for myself. In essence, the Almond Cow is a specialized blender designed specifically for nuts (if you’ve ever tried to make nut milk at home with your blender, you probably already know that many models are not designed to blend nuts—a lesson I learned the hard way.)
