About Tigernut milk

Tigernut milk is a creamy, dairy-free beverage made from tigernuts, small tubers native to North Africa and the Mediterranean. Despite its name, tigernuts are not nuts but nutrient-rich root vegetables. This plant-based milk is a staple in Spanish cuisine, particularly in Valencia, where it's known as "horchata de chufa." Rich in fiber, magnesium, potassium, and vitamins E and C, tigernut milk supports digestive health and provides powerful antioxidants. It's naturally sweet, offering a subtle nutty flavor, and is often enjoyed as a refreshing drink or ingredient in smoothies. Unlike most commercial plant milks, tigernut milk is free of gluten, dairy, and allergens, making it a good choice for people with sensitivities. However, some versions may contain added sugars, so checking the label is essential. Its combination of health benefits and delicious taste make tigernut milk a versatile choice for modern diets.
