Every ingredient, checked
- almondmilk (filtered water, almonds)
- calcium carbonate
- natural flavorsA catch-all term. It is almost always plant-derived in a product like this, but the label does not prove it.
- sea salt
- potassium citrate
- sunflower lecithin
- gellan gum
- vitamin a palmitate
- vitamin d2D2 is derived from yeast or fungi. It is D3 that is usually sheep's wool lanolin — this product uses D2.
- d-alpha-tocopherol (natural vitamin e)
Why
The line worth checking on any fortified plant milk is the vitamin D. This one uses D2, which is not animal-derived.
Plant milk is where vegan labels get quietly complicated: the milk itself is obviously plant-based, and then the fortification blend arrives. Vitamin D3 from lanolin is the usual snag. This product uses D2 instead, so the whole list clears.

Common questions
- Is almond milk always vegan?
- The base is, but fortified versions can carry vitamin D3 from lanolin. Check the vitamin line, not the front of the carton.
- What does 'natural flavors' mean here?
- It is an undefined catch-all under US labelling rules. In an almond milk it is almost certainly plant-derived, but strict readers write to the manufacturer rather than assume.
- Is the unsweetened version different from the original?
- For vegan status, no. For sugar, considerably — original adds cane sugar.
