What dairy-free products does EarthBased sell?

Plant based milks and drinks (Only Earth almond, oats and coconut drinks in 1 litre packs, Nourish You millet milk), ready-to-drink oats shakes, non-dairy coffee creamer from Soyvita, coconut butters from Good Graze, and plant based cheese and butter from Millie's, Veclan and Soft Spot. Everything is made in India and shipped pan-India.

Which plant based milk is best for tea and coffee?

Oats drink is the closest to dairy in body and does not split easily in hot chai or coffee. Almond drink is lighter; coconut drink adds its own flavour. For a creamer that dissolves in coffee, Soyvita plant based creamer is made for that.

Do plant based milks need refrigeration?

Sealed 1 litre packs from Only Earth and Nourish You are shelf-stable until opened. Once opened, refrigerate and use within 3–4 days. Fresh plant based cheese and butter ship cold and must be refrigerated on arrival.

Is plant based milk suitable for people with lactose intolerance?

Yes. Almond, oats, coconut and millet drinks contain no dairy and therefore no lactose. Check the label for any added ingredients if you have nut allergies — almond drink is made from almonds.

How is millet milk different from oat milk?

Nourish You millet milk is made from Indian millets and has a mild, slightly nutty taste; oats drink is creamier and sweeter. Both are dairy-free and can be used in tea, smoothies and cooking.

How fast do dairy-free products ship?

Shelf-stable drinks ship within a business day or two and arrive in 3–5 business days pan-India. Perishable cheese and butter are packed for cold chain and may dispatch only on specific days of the week.

Dairy Alternatives – Vegan Cheese & Butter

How to choose dairy alternatives in India

Dairy alternatives replace milk, butter and cheese with plant ingredients, so the right pick depends on what you want it to do in your kitchen. Start with the job, then read the label.

For pizza and toasties: choose a cheese sold as melting, such as Millie's Fresh Melty Vegan Mozzarella.
For crackers, sandwiches and parathas: a spreadable vegan cheese like Millie's Creamy Original, or a flavoured one such as Garlic & Pink Himalayan Salt, Burnt Red Chilli & Garlic, or Rosemary, Thyme & Oregano.
For toast, rotis and cooking: a plant-based butter. Millie's makes a Salted Butter and a Garlic Butter.

What to check on the label

The base ingredient. Nuts, coconut, soy or oats each behave differently; the first ingredient tells you the most.
No hidden dairy. A "lactose-free" product is not always vegan. It should list no milk, casein, whey or ghee.
Allergens. Many vegan cheeses use cashews or other nuts, so check if anyone at home has a nut allergy.
Storage. Most vegan cheese and butter need refrigeration and have a shorter life once opened, so buy in amounts you will use.
