No. Alpro Coconut Drink is a light, diluted beverage designed for drinking and adding to drinks. Canned coconut milk is much thicker and richer, so it works better in curries and other recipes that need a creamy base.
Yes. It adds a mild coconut flavour, though it may not foam like dairy milk or a barista-style plant drink. Add it gradually to hot coffee to reduce the chance of curdling.
Yes. Refrigerate the carton once opened and use it within the time stated on the pack. An unopened carton can usually be stored at room temperature, provided its packaging is intact.
Yes, give the carton a good shake, especially if it has been sitting for a while. Some separation can occur during storage, and shaking redistributes the contents for a more even pour.
Yes, you can add it to porridge, soups, sauces and mild curries. It is much thinner than canned coconut milk, so it will add coconut flavour but not the same richness or thickness.
The standard Alpro Coconut Drink contains sugars, but that does not necessarily mean sugar has been added; some can come from its ingredients. Alpro sells different varieties, so check the specific product name if you want an unsweetened option.
It is not suitable as a baby’s main drink or a replacement for breast milk or infant formula. Older children may have it as part of a varied diet, but it is low in protein compared with many alternatives.
Yes. Stir it into oats before refrigerating them overnight; it softens the oats and gives them a gentle coconut taste. Add fruit or nuts before serving for extra texture.
Yes, but it may separate or become grainy after thawing. Shake it thoroughly and use it in a smoothie or cooked dish, where a change in texture is less noticeable.
Yes. Blend it with fruit such as mango, banana or pineapple for a coconut-flavoured smoothie. For a thicker result, include frozen fruit rather than relying on the drink to add body.

Coconut Drink (Alpro) is a packaged, coconut-based plant drink often used as an alternative to dairy milk. It has a mild coconut flavour and a smooth, pourable texture, rather than the rich thickness of canned coconut milk. Drink it chilled, add it to coffee or cereal, or blend it into a smoothie. Across many English-speaking countries, it is an easy option for everyday breakfasts and drinks, though it may not suit recipes that rely on full-fat coconut milk. It is lactose-free and light, with 20 calories per 100 g, but provides little protein. Try it in porridge or coffee when you want a subtle coconut note.
Low
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
