We’re happy to see yet another dairy producer dabbling in our dairy-free world. Natural by Nature Oat Delicious is a line of oat milk made with organic oats. The company has also started making a seasonal oat nog, which we’ve included in this post.
Natural by Nature Oat Delicious Keeps it Organic with Milks and Nog
Their classic oat milks are made without any added sweeteners, but due to processing regulations, they do contain “added sugars.” To make oat milk smooth (or to put it bluntly, less slimy), they use enzymes to break down the carbohydrates. This produces simple sugars, which by regulation, must then be counted as added sugars. Their Oat Nog does contain added cane sugar and is a more indulgent holiday treat!

Natural by Nature Oat milk, a treat !
I am milk addicted , but age, warmer climate and more consciousness about animal wellness altogether made me start to look for ways to eats more responsibly. I try and try again all kind of milk substitutes. I hated them, until I discover Natural by Nature Oat milk. What a surprise! It’s not so far from cow’s milk in taste and the slight part of taste that is different is very good.
So I would resume this way : Good in itself while being close to taste of cow’s milk.
Not my favorite nog
Not my favorite nog, but not the worst either. It’s super thick and rich which makes it ideal for mixing with your favorite spirits, but also incredibly caloric, so proceed with caution! Also, I have a sneaking suspicion that it’s the same as Sprouts’ private label nog, which you can usually get for a bit less money.
