When it comes to coffee and tea creamers, you may have to try a few before you find the perfect one for you. Some are creamier, some are sweeter, but there’s something that all the best ones have in common: They don’t harm cows by using their milk. Even if creamers tout a “dairy-free” label, you may find milk derivatives such as casein in the ingredients. Thankfully, there are so many delicious vegan coffee creamers to choose from, and they’re widely available in most grocery stores.
Here are some of our favorite vegan coffee creamers:
