Not all varieties are at every location, and they do have an additional charge for the dairy-free substitution. Also, make sure a dairy-free milk is used for any foam, or hold the foam.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Heads Up<\/strong>! The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf uses their own flavored powders for their drinks, which all have a milk base (including their vanilla and matcha powders). Most of their syrups also contain milk ingredients (including the caramel and chocolate syrups). But you can substitute the\u00a0<strong>Vanilla Bean Sauce\/ Syrup<\/strong>, which is dairy-free, but contains honey, so it isn&#8217;t strictly vegan. Just make sure no whip is added to your flavored order!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vanilla Bean Syrup Note<\/strong>: The vegan informational page on The Coffee Bean &amp; Tea Leaf website makes it sound like the vanilla bean syrup contains milk. But we&#8217;ve verified with them on several occasions that honey is the non-vegan culprit with that syrup, not milk. They&#8217;ve just never updated their website. But as always, double check before ordering! They can show you the ingredients.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>Dairy-Free &amp; Vegan Food at The Coffee Bean &amp; Tea Leaf<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Plain Bagel<\/li>\n<li>Everything Bagel<\/li>\n<li>Vegan Chocolate Chip Banana Bread <em>(select locations)<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Vegan Chocolate Brownie\u00a0<em>(select locations)<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Chicken Banh Mi Sandwich (<em>seasonal;<\/em> <em>not vegan<\/em>)<\/li>\n<li>Apples &amp; Peanut Butter Picnic Box<\/li>\n<li>Fruit Cup<\/li>\n<li>Beanfield&#8217;s Chips<\/li>\n<li>Kettle Chips (select flavors, see labels)<\/li>\n<li>Oat Cups (Modern Oats or Umpqua Oats)<\/li>\n<li>Lenny &amp; Larry\u2019s The Complete Cookies<\/li>\n<li>Sabra Hummus Snack Packs with Pretzels<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Heads Up<\/strong>!

Lack of transparency. It\u2019s frankly ridiculous to have three different vanilla products, one of which always has milk (vanilla powder), one which at some point did not have dairy but did have honey and was therefore not vegan (vanilla sauce), and one which was at some point vegan (vanilla *bean* sauce\/syrup).
