In 2024, global production of plant protein beverages reached 64.57 million liters, with an average selling price of US$3 per liter.Plant protein beverages are a type of beverage made from plant-based ingredients such as soybeans, oats, almonds, coconuts, peas, walnuts, peanuts, and sesame seeds as their primary protein source, through processes such as peeling, crushing, soaking, grinding, extraction, homogenization, and sterilization. Their core characteristics are that they are rich in plant protein, free of lactose and animal cholesterol, with diverse tastes and high nutritional value, meeting the needs of lactose-intolerant people, vegetarians, and consumers pursuing a healthy lifestyle. In recent years, with the rise of healthy consumption and low-carbon environmental protection concepts, plant protein beverages have not only continued to innovate based on traditional soy milk, peanut milk, and walnut milk, but have also expanded into new categories such as oat milk, almond milk, and coconut milk. They are widely used in breakfast drinks, coffee companions, meal replacements, baking, and functional beverages, and have become one of the fastest-growing segments in the beverage industry.

The plant protein beverage market has maintained rapid growth in recent years, mainly driven by factors such as healthy consumption trends, the increase in the number of lactose intolerant people, and the rise of vegetarianism and environmental protection concepts. As consumers' interest in high-protein, low-fat, and cholesterol-free beverages grows, subcategories such as soy milk, oat milk, almond milk, and coconut milk have continued to expand, gradually evolving from dairy alternatives to mainstream health beverages. At the same time, technological advances have improved taste and nutritional value, and the promotion of e-commerce and new retail channels has significantly increased the penetration rate of plant protein beverages. Driven by capital and branding, international giants and local companies are accelerating their expansion, resulting in fierce market competition but also promoting product diversification and differentiation. In the future, with the increasing application of functional, customized, and sustainable packaging, the plant-based protein beverage market is expected to continue its high growth rate, becoming a key growth point in the health beverage market.
