The Almond Breeze Unsweetened Vanilla Almond milk is just 1 carb (I think?) per 8 ounce glass. A good carb bargain if you ask me.
You can make quite a nice 'shake' as follows:
8 ounces Almond Breeze Unsweetened Vanilla Almond milk
1/4 cup frozen Dole brand wild blueberries
1/4 teaspoon real vanilla extract
1 drop of Sweetzfree or other sweetener of choice (I don't use any at all anymore and the shake is still good).
Whirl all up in a blender, and voila - a nice shake-like treat. The berries being frozen is important, and so is using *wild* frozen blueberries, since they seem to have a more intense flavour. The Dole brand is the lowest carb frozen wild blueberry out there - available usually at Wal-Mart Super Center.
One of these days, I'd like to try making a homemade LC'd 'Frappucino' of sorts using the unsweetened vanilla almond milk, some strong brewed coffee, some ice etc.
