🌰 Nut MilksPistachio Milk
Pistachios have been cultivated in Persia and across the Middle East for millennia, yet pistachio milk is one of the newest arrivals on the plant milk shelf. New York's Táche kicked off the category in 2020, London's Borna Foods brought a pistachio drink to the UK around the same time, and Elmhurst followed with a barista edition — so the once-niche nut is now frothing lattes on both sides of the Atlantic. The flavour is delicate and distinctive: lightly roasted, sweet-savoury, with the faintest green tint and none of the bitterness some nut milks carry. It's made for coffee, and just as happy in smoothies, matcha, and desserts that nod to kulfi, baklava or gelato.
First, the plant.
