Discovering that you have an intolerance to Lactose feels pretty limiting, especially when it comes to Christmas time. With Christmas being a real celebration of food and drink, the majority of festive classics are focused on dairy. Luckily for you, there is now a wonderful selection of dairy-free and plant-based alternatives for you to explore. Here are our festive favourites!
Eggnog
Eggnog is a festive favourite, and while it's not everyone's cup of tea, we all seem to indulge at Christmas. Made with eggs, milk, cream and spices, Eggnog is far from suitable for those who suffer from lactose intolerance or simply steer away from dairy.
Baileys
Another creamy drink that has become synonymous with Christmas is Baileys. But, did you know that Baileys has launched a vegan-friendly alternative? 100% dairy-free, the Baileys Almande is sweet and just as silky as Baileys Orginal....you are welcome!
Mince Pies
Whether enjoyed with a hot toddy or left out for Santa, mince pies are woven through the tapestry of the festive season. But, with buttery pastry, they are not the friends of Vegans or non-dairy eaters. We recommend purchasing the "Free From" mince pies, which have been taste-tasted by the team here at Supply Life!
Bread Sauce
Bread sauce is a Christmas day table staple, made from milk, onion with breadcrumbs and butter. While delicious and delicious, for those looking to steer away from dairy, bread sauce is not ideal. We would recommend switching to cranberry sauce, which is dairy-free, sweet and delicious!
