⚠️ Watch-outs & how to enjoy it better
Some may find the flavor less robust than regular cappuccino, and non-dairy milks can sometimes cause digestive discomfort for those with sensitivities to certain plant proteins (e.g., soy or almond). To counteract, choose a well-tolerated milk like oat or coconut, and pair with a small protein-rich snack like nuts to balance blood sugar.
