Consumption of plant-based beverages is a new and current trend in recent years. It is evident that the population is becoming more conscious of their dietary choices and striving for a healthier and better quality of life, which includes incorporating such products. Additionally, one of the main reasons for consuming plant-based beverages is health-related. A large number of people suffer from allergies to cow's milk proteins and lactose intolerance. Therefore, it is in the interest of producers to create a product that closely resembles cow's milk in terms of texture, color, taste, and nutritional values. The nutritional content of cow's milk and plant-based alternatives differs significantly, so manufacturers enrich their plant-based beverages. The technological process of production also varies from one raw material to another. In our market, the most commonly used plant-based beverages are made from soy, almonds, oats, rice, and coconut. Their technological production process, nutritional composition, advantages and disadvantages are described in more detail in the paper, and many other plant-based alternatives are also mentioned.
