Costco is now offering an upgrade to your morning routine thanks to Oatley’s Barista Edition Oatmilk. The same creamy, froth-ready oat milk trusted by professional baristas and a staple in coffee shops around the country has finally landed on warehouse shelves, giving members a café-worthy experience without leaving home.
Why Oatly Barista Edition Stands Out
Oat milk is quickly becoming one of the most popular dairy alternatives, but not all cartons are created equal. Many plant-based milks don’t perform well in coffee because of heat and acidity, often causing them to separate or curdle. Additionally, the lower protein and fat content of plant-based milks often results in a thiner product that lacks the creamy, velvety texture of dairy milk. Oatly designed its Barista Edition specifically with coffee drinking in mind, crafting an oat milk that steams beautifully, froths into a silky foam, and blends seamlessly into espressos and iced coffees. That’s why it has become the go-to oat milk for professional baristas.
Costco and Oatly Make a Good Team
Costco is selling the coffee shop favorite for $14.99 per case of six 32-ounce cartons. The cartons are shelf stable until opened, which makes them a perfect purchase at your favorite warehouse giant. So go ahead and stock your pantry without worrying about waste. It’s a lot more convenient, and cost-effective than searching for individual cartons at specialty grocers or paying steep café prices.
Oatly is Good For The Planet
Not only is oat milk a good alternative to dairy, it’s also good for the environment. Oatly reports that Barista Edition has a 46% lower climate impact and uses 71% less water compared to traditional cow’s milk. For anyone looking to make their coffee more eco-conscious, it’s an easy switch.
Those numbers matter when you think about how central coffee is to everyday life. According to industry surveys, more than 150 million Americans drink coffee daily, and many consume multiple cups. If even a fraction of those drinkers swapped in Oatly for their morning latte, the savings in water alone would be staggering. For perspective, producing a single glass of cow’s milk can require upwards of 100 gallons of water. The majority is used for feed production, but also animal drinking water (cows drink 20-50 gallons of water per day), and farm management, including cleaning and the milking process.
Who is Oatly’s Barista Edition Oat Milk For?
This rollout isn’t just for vegans or the dairy-free crowd. It’s for anyone who wants a smoother, creamier enhancement to their morning cup. From casual cold brew drinkers to home cappuccino artisans, Oatly Barista Edition takes homemade coffee to a new level. And with Costco’s bulk pricing, it’s never been more accessible.
The oat milk trend shows no sign of slowing down, and Oatly continues to set the bar. By bringing its best-selling Barista Edition to Costco, the company is making coffee house quality beverages an everyday reality—no barista experience required.
