What can you use oat drink for?

What can you use oat drinks for?  

Alpro Oat drinks are super versatile and well loved for their velvety, creamy texture and sweet taste. Simply delicious!  

Here we’re going to show you exactly how to get the most from your oat, with our suggestions for everything from beverages to breakfasts, and how Alpro Oat Drinks are a delicious addition to some of your favourite savoury and sweet kitchen creations. 

Using oat drink in beverages 

Just like milk, Alpro Oat Drinks can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. Because of their great taste and creamy texture, they’re perfect in your morning coffee or afternoon cuppa, as well as in smoothies and shakes, providing that all-important frothy finish that you’re looking for.  

Speaking of coffee, have you tried our Barista Oat Drink? Whether you enjoy your coffee hot, iced, frothy or flat, the flavour of our fabulous oats is the perfect accompaniment for your coffee beans.  

The creamy sweetness means you get all that richness, without ever sacrificing on flavour. Which is probably why it tastes so good in a large mug of hot chocolate.  

 Why not put your oat drink to the test and try something new?

Oat drink smoothies 

When it comes to smoothies, Alpro Oat Drinks will be the perfect partner for any of your fruit favourites. And strawberries are a great choice.  

Blend strawberries and bananas (no need to freeze - they’re there for added thickness and texture) with Alpro Original Oat Drink, along with a few ice cubes and some honey or maple syrup (add as much or as little as you like depending on how sweet you like your smoothies). And voilà! You have a scrumptious start to the day.

Getting your day off to a great start is important, and Alpro Oat Drinks are here to help you do just that. As well as tasting smooth and creamy when poured over your favourite cereal, Alpro Oat Drinks are delicious in anything from porridge and pancakes to French toast and creamy smoothies.
