Had a lot of fun opening my box (of goodies) from the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club to try out a Dream non-dairy beverage.
The expected "watered down" taste was there that you get from all the non-dairy milks I've had, but I felt this one wasn't as bad as some of the other brands I've tried(hello, Costco). If you're used to drinking cows milk and switch to this you probably won't like it b/c it's less sweet and creamy. I felt this one, even though it was the Original, was still not sweet enough to drink from a glass, and had to add sugar. Also, I really love coconut and was surprised that I couldn't taste it at all.
I found mine at Safeway and they had a lot of shelf-stable flavours, but non of the refridgerated ones. I think the chocolate and cashew flavours sounded tempting, and would try them out in the future.
I made my carton into eggnog with the "Almond Dream Nog" recipe card I got in my ChickBox. It turned out FANTASTIC. I added about 1/4 cup sugar to the recipe. It was satisfyingly Christmasy and spiced and a perfect nog-alternative for the ones in my fam who can't have milk. They have a recipe card for "Dream Pumpkin Pie" that I would try in the future too.
I like that there are so many non-fridge flavours b/c it's so practical to store unopened without spoiling, and much easier to take camping too. Also liked reading on the box that coconuts naturally have fatty acids, nice health fact. One small drawback I had was the opening of the box (juice pull-tab) b/c I had it "burp" out over the counter when pouring.
Overall I would recommend this product if for health reasons you can't eat milk, especially when adding a little sugar (or nog spices) when drinking it straight from the carton. #tastetheDream

love it, the taste and smothness of it... love it... will buy again #tastetheDream!

Coconut Dream (refrigerated);

VERY GOOD surprisingly, never would have thought to have tried it before Chickadvisor sent coupon for.

The family enjoyed as well.

Esp. those who prefer lactose-free for digestion, this was a good choice, a good taste , I liked that it was made with real coconuts. Had a natural strong presence of coconut taste.

I wouldn't drink this beverage every day though, as it was a distinct taste.....
But couple of times a week sure why not.

Another great product and milk/soy beverage substitute by Dream for those who can't have milk or soy and dislike the taste of nut milks. This product tastes exactly like coconut but has a less intense coconut taste than canned coconut milk (which is good since canned coconut milk is very fatty!). The product is thocked than soy milk but not so much that it makes it hard to drink in its own. The coconut milk is super versatile and can be added to coffee, thai based soup creams, pancakes and other baked goods. When added for baking it provides a subtle coconut favour so it won't overpower your dishes. A truely multipurpose delicious milk substitute!

This is a very refreshing drink and so good for you - tastes great too!

amazing, smooth and perfectly delicious especially great in fruit smoothies :D
