I must say that they really knocked it out of the park with this product line. Silk AlmondMilk Yogurt is a perfectly thick, wonderfully creamy dairy-free yogurt with the most delicious flavors.
Silk AlmondMilk Yogurt also has a short and sweet ingredient list. Plus, each flavor boasts a natural dose of protein (5 to 6 grams) and plant-based fats (11 to 13 grams) from the almond base. They don’t yet have an unsweetened variety, which I would love to see. But the Plain has just 6 grams of sugar, while maintaining an enjoyable taste.
The flavored varieties clock in at 15 to 17 grams of sugar per single-serve container, making them a bit more of a treat in our household (much like their soy-based yogurts). But the wholesome ingredients and live and active cultures do bump them up a notch from your typical dessert. And they really do satisfy as a sweet reward.
Silk AlmondMilk Yogurt is Now Sold in Seven Flavors
As mentioned, each flavor is perfectly thick with a near seamless creamy finish. The yogurt spoons with ease, and isn’t runny in the slightest. And since it is free of gums and carrageenan there aren’t any gelatinous oddities either. In my opinion, this is dairy-free yogurt how it should be.
Silk Almondmilk Yogurt is actually so natural, that I was able to make this Dairy-Free Yogurt Cheese Recipe with it. And believe me, it is AMAZING. I used the Plain variety, which has a lightly sweet finish, but can still be paired with savories. And trust me, not all dairy-free yogurts work as yogurt cheese. But this one definitely does.

A personal favorite
I’ve taste-tested dozens of dairy-free yogurt brands over the years, and this is one of my favorites. It’s smooth, creamy, and spot on in flavor. Here are my tasting notes for the flavors that my husband and I tried:
Plain – For now, this is my go-to flavor since it’s much lower in sugar than the others, and is closer to neutral in flavor. It still has a light sweetness that makes it pleasant enough for breakfast, but it also has a little more versatility.
Vanilla – This is a good staple flavor with flecks of vanilla bean that my husband devoured.
Dark Chocolate Coconut – I’m not usually a fan of chocolate yogurt, but Silk won me over. It ventures into dessert territory with deep flavor, the perfect sweetness, and barely a hint of tang. The coconut and almond underpinnings pair perfectly and truly round out the experience.
Peach – Each spoonful was sweet, peachy yogurt bliss. It had a pleasant light tang, but wasn’t as tangy as some traditional yogurts can be. The natural peach was notable in the overall flavor, the pretty hue, and the little bits of peach throughout.
Strawberry – Just like the peach, this variety had a dessert-like flavor with a light yogurt tang finish. And the real strawberries were pervasive in the look and taste.
Great yogurt alternative
I recently tried the chocolate coconut. I love the flavor and found it very satisfying. My only complaint would be that I found it a bit thin. You could almost drink it.
Silk almond you
Tried it for the first time. Loved it. Will be buying more.
Just as good as the real stuff
Hello everyone,
I recently became lactose intolerant (boo)! I was so upset and really morning the thought of not being able to eat any more cheese products! Because of Silk and their long list of lactose free products I am going to be fine. I was so pleased on how good the Silk yogurts taste & they still have the good probiotics our body needs. The stress reliever “Silk products”😋
Sweet 😲 surprise
I was very surprised!!! The taste was good and creamy. I enjoyed it. The Chocolate was excellent. I have added this brand to my shopping list.
Mixed Berry Chia Granola=vitamins in my book!!
Love the taste, has to be bad for me somehow to taste this good!!
All liquid- not expired NASTY
I just purchased this (large container) of Silk brand plain almond milk yogurt and opened it to find a completely liquid-filled container (some floating chunks). NASTY! It didn’t smell weird, it was not expired (1 month before expire date), and I literally opened it when I got home from the store. Tip: Shake your container before purchasing. I tossed the whole thing down the sink, not taking chances. YUCKY!!!!! ZERO stars
Amazing!!!
So yummy!! I love the texture and the fact that it’s CARAGEENEN free!!! It’s hard to find yogurt that’s dairy-free without all the extra add yuckies. I am a yogurt fan, and since going dairy-free this one satisfies my craving.
Not good on the taste buds
I almost choked when the flavour hit my mouth. The almond milk peach is the Worst flavour ever. Had to rate it a one cause its the lowest option. PERIODDDD
Amazing
This stuff is soooooo good and I’m not a huge fan of yogurt. Hopefully they’ll come out with a banana flavor. Banana almond milk is incredible.

Silk Almond Milk Yogurt is a dream come true!!!!! I can’t eat dairy or soy, so being able to eat yogurt is a very big deal! The peach and vanilla are absolutely delicious! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU TO SILK FOR MAKYTHIS WONDERFUL YOGURT!!!!
Such a find. So glad to find a plant based product without coconut oil or soy!
Just before a migraine, I get the insatiable urge for chocolate, not completely uncommon. I have found the dark chocoholic coconut the perfect satisfaction for that need. I love it!
That’s so interesting. Glad this one fits the bill!
What a great yogurt! I love how creamy it is and how it still has some protein. The peach flavor sounds delicious.
Yes, definitely one of the more “pure” brands.
I’ve only tried the plain for yogurt cheese but I do have 2 chocolate in the fridge! I thought I picked up a strawberry but not sure what happened to it. After reading this I’m even more excited to try the chocolate as is and not strain it, maybe even for dessert tonight!
Yes, I definitely recommend giving the chocolate a try before straining – it is such a delicious dessert!
