The use of almond milk ensures that it is inclusive to all lactose intolerant individuals, but, if you are not a fan your preferred milk can always replace it. This can also be done with maple syrup which can be replaced with honey – based on your preference. Feeling experimental? You can always add fresh fruits to your mixture and other interesting ingredients! Look into Love & Lemons’ different variations.
