My husband and I don't drink cow's milk because I try to keep my carbs fairly low, and he is lactose intolerant. It doesn't matter that much to my husband, because he only really uses it as an ingredient in things, since he has never been a big milk drinker. I, on the other hand, used to drink milk as my primary beverage and loved it with pretty much every meal. I really miss it. So, I have tried pretty much every unsweetened milk alternative I could get my hands on -- you name it, I've almost certainly tried it (soy, almond, coconut, hemp, oat, hazelnut, blends thereof, etc. etc.). I had never come across macadamia milk before, though. So, when I saw it on sale for Prime Day, I jumped on it, even though it was a 6-pack. It sounded pretty good, since I'm a fan of macadamias. Plus, I figured it had good potential for milk, since they're such a creamy nut to begin with.
And wow -- no regrets. This milk is so rich and smooth, with none of that "off" aftertaste that most milk alternatives have. It still isn't dairy -- so don't go in expecting that. But that said, it is the closest I have ever come to finding a true milk replacement. This is actually enjoyable to just drink by the glass or with a meal. In particular, it's not too thin, and it doesn't have an overly distinctive, in-your-face kind of flavor. It's neutral and goes well with almost anything, which is what I always loved about cow's milk. If you've been searching like me and haven't been satisfied yet, I definitely recommend you try this stuff. I was not disappointed, and I doubt you will be either.
This review is for the unsweetened version.
I quite like this macadamia nut milk. Maybe three years ago, I gave up all dairy and eggs for a bit over a year because I'm not comfortable with how animals are treated in factory farms. During that period, I used soy and almond milks, but I ended up going back to milk (trying to find the most humane brands offered in my area) because I just didn't feel good physically. A couple of years later, I'm now suspecting that I've developed a lactose intolerance as I've gotten older, so I started looking for alternatives and found this.
When I use this on cereal, I really don't notice a difference between it and milk. I think it's great on cereal. Yes, it definitely tastes different than milk, but the cereal masks that for me. When drinking it straight, I think it's at least as good as soy or almond milk...which means that I don't think it's awesome, but it's not bad at all.
The containers are very convenient. You don't need to refrigerate this until you open one, although I do keep mine in the refrigerator so that they're already cold when I want to open a new one.
No question, I wish that the price was lower. At the moment, it's a bit more than twice as expensive as the milk that I was buying, which is already over twice as expensive as regular milk...so, this stuff isn't cheap. But, I like the taste on cereal and I feel fine after having it.
I really like this milk. I stopped drinking milk about 9 months ago because it makes me sleepy and bloated and started drinking soy in my morning lattes. It tasted great but made me break out and messed up my menstrual cycle. I then resigned myself to almond milk even though I don't like the flavor when it is steamed. I found this macadamia nut milk at a local coffee shop and started ordering it online. It tastes great in lattes and doesn't have that gross burnt flavor. The only reason I removed one start is that the company changed the formula recently and really watered down the product. It is not as creamy and doesn't foam like milk like it used to. Its still a great alternative to regular milk though for those who can't, or don't want to, drink regular milk. It has a bit of a sweet flavor and my husband likes to drink it in his iced coffee for that reason. You won't be disappointed with this milk-alternative!
Milkadamia milk is now my go-to dairy substitute. Cold, it tastes great on it's own and even better on cereal or in a smoothie. The challenge for someone like me who is trying to cut out as many animal products as possible has always been finding a non-dairy substitute for coffee/lattes. For those who don't like Soy, or are annoyed with that aftertaste/consistency of Coconut or Almond milk warmed up, Milkadamia is a perfect option. Add the fact that its nutritionally better than any other milk on the market, and Milkadamia has a customer for life here. Good stuff!
Honestly, this milk is the best! I've tried nearly every almond, soy, hemp, and coconut milk brand there is and this tops all of them by far. It has a very smooth, creamy and delicious flavor. We use it in smoothies, shakes, baking, and dunking chocolate chip cookies :)

lovely neutral taste without bitterness. i user it in everything you'd normally use milk.

Free from Gluten and packed with antioxidants.
It’s my choice in Smoothies, Cereal, Coffee and just enjoying a glass!
I bought this macadamia milk after trying almond/cashew milk because I wanted to try something different that has low carbs. This is a great alternative to regular milk and it tastes really great. Unfortunately I'm allergic to legumes and I didn't read the ingredients prior to purchasing. My fault. The pea proteins caused an allergic reaction (nothing too bad) and sadly I'm unable to drink the stuff.
This is absolutely the BEST nut milk on earth. I have tried every nut milk possible and saw this when it came on Thrive Market. I ordered from Amazon because I have prime even though it was substantially more money. I will continue on ordering this for my go to milk. It tastes AMAZING!!!!
I love this stuff. It tastes good and works well added to some espresso (I like to buy an Americano and add this to it). What I love even more is that this doesn’t have sugar. I always check the milk substitutes when I’m at a coffee shop, chain or local, and the carbs/sugars are crazy. This baby is free of all that. So even if you want to add a packet or two of som delicious raw sugar, you’re not doing that on top of loads of sugar already in the product. Of course the downside of this product is that it’s not sweet like the sugar filled milk substitute options. It has a faint vanilla flavor but not the sweetness. For me, that’s a big plus. Depending on what you want, it might not be. But I’d argue that you’re better off with this and then adding your own sugar, than the stuff loaded with sugar already.
