U.S. Plant-Based Beverage Trends and Korean Ginseng Recipes for Almond & Oat Drinks.

 


Hello, this is GINWORLDART, a premium Korean ginseng brand.
In our previous post, we introduced the concepts of vegan and flexitarian diets.

With such changes in eating habits, you’ve probably heard the term “plant-based milk” at least once. Products like almond milk and oat milk are now commonly found in supermarkets and cafés. But is it really accurate to call these beverages “milk”?

In fact, the correct term under Korean food law is “plant-based beverage.” According to the Food Sanitation Act in Korea, the term “milk” refers only to sterilized or pasteurized liquid milk from cows. Beverages made from oats, almonds, or soy cannot legally be labeled as milk. 

Korea’s Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS) also provides clear guidelines in the Labeling Guide for Alternative Foods to prevent misleading terms.

So in today’s Health Whitepaper, we’ll explore:

  • The current trends in the U.S. plant-based beverage market

  • Why the term “milk” can be misleading

  • Healthy ginseng-based recipes for almond and oat drinks

1. Why “Plant-Based Beverage” — Not “Milk”?

Under Korean law, the term “milk” refers exclusively to sterilized or pasteurized cow’s milk. Therefore, plant-based liquids made from oats or almonds cannot be labeled as milk.

The MFDS also recommends that manufacturers avoid using names of ingredients that are not actually used in the product, to prevent consumer confusion. Thus, in Korea, terms like “almond milk” or “oat milk” are replaced with “almond beverage” or “oat beverage.”

In contrast, the U.S. typically uses the term “plant-based milk.” The FDA permits the term but encourages brands to clearly disclose nutritional differences from real milk—such as lower protein or calcium content.

▶ This difference in naming can mislead consumers into believing that plant-based beverages offer similar nutrition to cow’s milk. 

This is especially concerning for children in growth stages who rely solely on plant-based drinks, as they may lack essential nutrients like protein, calcium, or amino acids.

*Post Summary

  • “Plant-based milk” may cause confusion; the legally accurate term is “plant-based beverage” in Korea.

  • Compared to milk, these beverages differ significantly in processing and nutrition.

  • The U.S. market is growing, led by almond and oat beverages for health- and eco-conscious consumers.

  • Korean ginseng is an ideal addition to enhance the wellness value of plant-based drinks.
