Coffee creamers have been around for a very long time. Longer than you might even imagine. They were first introduced back in the mid 1940’s when an inventor set out to create soy cream that wouldn’t curdle when mixed with coffee. In the early 1960’s it started to be commercialised by popular companies, and the rest is history. If you’re thinking about bringing coffee creamer into your daily routine, or simply want to try a different type to what you’re used to for some variety, read on to learn more about the best coffee creamers in 2022.
Choosing Wisely
Deciding on a coffee creamer shouldn’t be taken lightly. It’s known for being convenient and popular, but it’s worth remembering that unlike milk, they don’t contain any vitamins or minerals. This limits their nutritional benefits, although this doesn’t mean that it is harmful to your health. Creamer is ideal for people who are lactose intolerant, as well as in situations where it is impossible to keep fresh milk (like on a camping or road trip, for instance). Incorporate it into your daily routine with some intention, substituting the vitamins you may have gotten from milk through supplements if need be.
