Café con Leche (Unsweetened Plant‑Based Milk)

Café con Leche (Unsweetened Plant‑Based Milk) is a popular coffee drink made by combining espresso (or strong brewed coffee) with unsweetened plant‑based milk; it’s common in Spanish‑language cafés and home kitchens as a dairy‑free alternative to the classic café con leche. It provides a light, milky texture with the familiar coffee flavor while keeping added sugars and dairy absent. Nutritionally, Café con Leche (Unsweetened Plant‑Based Milk) is low in energy at 17kcal per 100g and contributes a small amount of plant protein and minerals; it can be a modest source of calcium with about 62mg per 100g when the milk is fortified. The drink is low in saturated fat and usually lower in calories than versions made with full‑fat dairy. From a health perspective, this unsweetened plant‑based café con leche is a nutrient‑conscious choice: it offers acceptable protein quality for a plant beverage and useful micronutrient contributions (notably calcium and vitamin B12 when fortified), while keeping added sugars and saturated fat minimal.Read more
