The Dairy-Free Tea Guide: Oat Milk, Coconut Blends, and Clear Brew Options
Plant-Based Milks Offered at Bloom Cup
Barista oat milk and rich coconut cream
Barista-Grade Oat Milk: Formulated specifically for specialty cafes, our oat milk creates a velvety micro-foam without separating when in contact with acidic fruit or tannin-heavy oolongs. It adds a subtle toasted cereal note that pairs nicely with roasted teas.
Coconut Milk: Used predominantly in our Mango Coconut Jasmine Tea and Pistachio drinks, coconut milk provides tropical body and rich mouthfeel without the heaviness of dairy cream.
What to Avoid if You Are Strictly Dairy-Free
Hidden dairy items to keep in mind
Avoid the Cloud Cream Series: The whipped foam contains real pasture-raised heavy whipping cream. Bloom Cup does not currently offer a vegan whipped cream alternative.
Avoid Salted Cream toppings: Similar to the Cloud series, salted foam is made with cow’s milk dairy.
Check on Pistachio series: While made with a coconut milk base, certain variations may be prepared in shared blender vessels.
Clear Fruit and Herbal Refreshers
If you prefer to avoid milk alternatives entirely, Bloom Cup’s fruit-led refreshers (such as the Jasmine Mango Smoothie or chilled clear Osmanthus teas) are naturally dairy-free and deeply hydrating.
