Celebrate Together: Making Special Memories with Almond Cow This Holiday Season

The holidays are a season of warmth, connection, and gathering around the things that bring us joy—family, friends, and, of course, delicious homemade treats. There’s something magical about coming together in the kitchen, creating festive recipes, and sharing those moments with the ones we love. With the Almond Cow machine, you can elevate those moments even further, making it easy to create plant-based versions of seasonal favorites that everyone will love, whether they’re longtime plant-based enthusiasts or just beginning to explore it. Here’s a look at some of our favorite holiday recipes that you can whip up with loved ones to create special memories this season.

1. Oatnog

Nothing says “holidays” quite like eggnog, but why not switch it up this year with a creamy, plant-based Oatnog? This delicious Almond Cow drink is full of warm spices, making it a perfect cozy treat for friends sharing stories around the fire or while trimming the tree. It’s also an inviting way to introduce people to plant-based options while still keeping that traditional holiday flair.

2. Cranberry Chia Jam

Cranberries are a must-have during the holiday season, and with Cranberry Chia Jam, you can create a fresh and tangy spread that’s perfect for special breakfasts, cheese boards, or even as a special gift. This jam is not only easy to make with the Almond Cow but also makes a vibrant addition to holiday gatherings. Your kids will love smashing the cranberries until they delightfully pop in the pot, and you can feel good serving it to them knowing every bite is free from refined sugars.

3. Chocolate Cashew Crinkle Cookies

Cookies tend to be the quintessential holiday dessert. These Chocolate Cashew Crinkle Cookies combine rich, chocolatey flavors with a soft, chewy texture. They’re great for a cookie-decorating party or as a sweet snack while sharing stories with loved ones. Plus, they’re a perfect example of how to use leftover pulp from the Almond Cow, ensuring no part of your ingredients goes to waste! Rolling the dough in the powdered sugar can get a little messy, but it's sure to make a lasting memory!

4. Peppermint Chocolate Milk

For a drink that both kids and adults will love, try Peppermint Chocolate Milk. Made in a mere minute, this drink's creamy, chocolatey base mixed with a hint of peppermint makes it a festive holiday staple. Serve it hot for a warming treat on a chilly winter evening, or chilled as a refreshing twist on a classic. It's a simple recipe to create together, and a fun way to spread holiday cheer, one sip at a time.

5. Hot Cross Buns

Warm, spiced buns bring a sense of nostalgia and homeyness to any holiday table. Hot Cross Buns are a beloved treat to enjoy with family over brunch or during an evening gathering. Making them with the Almond Cow not only ensures they’re plant-based and delicious but also provides an activity for family members and friends to work together, from mixing the dough to frosting the cross on top! 

6. Holiday Fruitcake Infusion

If you're feeling nostalgic, a holiday fruitcake could be just the ticket! But instead of subjecting the new generation to the traditional brick dessert, add a festive twist to your celebrations with our Holiday Fruitcake Infusion! This delightful drink captures the essence of traditional fruitcake in a refreshing plant-based beverage. Using the Almond Cow, combine dried fruits, spices, and a splash of your favorite plant-based milk to create this unique holiday elixir. Perfect for a festive toast to the season!

This season, Almond Cow offers more than just plant-based milk—it’s a way to connect, create, and celebrate. Whether it’s crafting special beverages or baking traditional treats, these recipes provide opportunities to gather, share laughter, and build memories that last a lifetime. So why not make this holiday season a little cozier, a little tastier, and a whole lot more meaningful?
