This new milk tea launched by Heytea recently uses different milk (the recipe is at the end of the article)

Recently, HEYTEA and OATHLY jointly launched a limited edition milk tea - Oatmeal Milk Bobo, the main ingredients of which are oatmeal milk, brown sugar pearls and canned oats.

This is the first time that HEYTEA has developed a new product based on oat milk. The official WeChat account describes the taste as refreshing oat aroma, sweet and refreshing. It is a healthy and light drink with a rich taste and no burden. So what exactly is oat milk? How is it different from milk?

The difference in taste between oat milk and milk

Oat milk is a plant-based milk with a rough texture and is less smooth than cow's milk.

In terms of flavor, compared with soy milk, almond milk, etc., oat milk has a richer taste and a lighter taste, with a natural oatmeal aroma. At the same time, oat milk itself has a natural sweetness and does not require the addition of too much sugar or thickener.

In terms of nutrition, compared with milk, oats are rich in vitamin B and zinc, which have a good regulating effect on the metabolism of sugars and fats, and can also effectively reduce cholesterol levels. Among cereals, the content of protein, beneficial fats, vitamins, calcium, etc. is quite high.

In terms of beverage applications, it can be paired with coffee to make milk tea. At the same time, you can add canned oats, red beans, pearls, taro balls and other small ingredients as a base. It is generally more suitable as breakfast.

Oat milk is better with coffee than cow's milk

Since last year, oat milk has become increasingly prominent in the Chinese beverage market, but it is more commonly used in coffee. On some social networking sites such as Xiaohongshu, oat milk coffee has received rave reviews.

Not only in China, but also more and more people abroad prefer plant milk coffee. Given the nutritional and taste properties of the above-mentioned oat milk, it is very suitable as a milk substitute in coffee making.

Last year, Starbucks added the option of oat milk in five select stores in Seattle, San Francisco and New York. When ordering dairy drinks such as latte and cappuccino, consumers can choose oat milk in addition to soy milk if they don’t like milk.

Of course, there are other potential uses for oat milk that can be developed, such as cooking desserts, baking, etc.

Zhang Yan, a R&D staff member of Wuxi Delu Trading, said that he personally feels that the combination of coffee and oat milk tastes better than milk. The first taste is the bitterness of coffee and the astringency of oat milk, but the aftertaste is the aroma of coffee and the sweetness of oats, and the taste is very mellow.

Jiayang, R&D director of Wuhan Thaimi, has also developed oat milk products. He described the taste of oat milk as a bit like oat breakfast milk, and it is quite good when paired with espresso to make oat iced latte.
