KUALA LUMPUR 24 June - Most recently, Malaysians have been adopting more plant-based diets whether it is for health benefits or to cut back on their carbon footprint.
Despite the trend however, many are also still struggling to jump on the ‘eat clean’ bandwagon, with the assumption that healthy options are unpleasant to taste. While others, who are already seasoned plant-based eaters, may have difficulty finding the right options at their local eateries.
At Starbucks Malaysia, they have perfected several plant-based beverages that will make you second-guess if it’s truly 100% plant-based (yes, they are), and if you are already practicing the plant-based life but couldn’t find a drink that’s suitable to your taste, well look no more as Starbucks has the perfect line-up for you!

This drink combines the rich flavors of almond milk and the silky-smooth caramel syrup to create a creamy and indulgent guilt-free beverage!
