Among Brits, coconut milk was the third most popular option (17 per cent) after almond milk (22 per cent) and oat milk (20 per cent), reported Ipsos.
‘While coconut milk sold in a carton in the milk aisle is a more diluted product than the type of canned coconut milk used for cooking, it still can contain more fat than some other milk alternatives and is fairly low in protein,’ nutritionist Clarissa Lenherr previously told MailOnline.
‘Coconut milk can sometimes contain gums that are used as thickeners, and if not, many brands add rice milk to it, so always check the labels,’ Lenherr adds.
And, according to alternative milk brand Alpro, it's a good thing there are so many non-dairy options, as research shows 48 per cent of Britons now use a plant-based milk in their brew.
Unlike the subtle flavour of oat or almond milk, coconut milk has a very distinctive flavour profile.
