Why Make This Dairy-Free Sour Cream Recipe?

This homemade vegan sour cream is a game-changer for plant-based kitchens. It’s rich, tangy, and perfect for everything from tacos to baked potatoes. Plus, it’s easy to whip up in just 30 seconds—no stabilizers, no gums, and no additives, unlike store-bought options.


Why This Recipe is So Easy

With just five ingredients and a blender, you’ll have smooth and tangy sour cream ready in minutes. Using JOI’s almond or cashew concentrate means no need to soak nuts or chase down pre-made alternatives. It’s perfect for busy weeknights when you need a quick, plant-based option.


Why Use JOI for This Recipe?

JOI concentrates are designed to make your life easier—and better for the planet.

  • Clean Label & Nutrient-Dense: Our almond concentrate is free from gums and preservatives. Almonds are also high in vitamin E, which supports skin health and immune function (Healthline).
  • Sustainable & Waste-Free: Using JOI helps cut down on packaging waste and spoilage since you only make what you need. Plus, because you add the water, that means a better carbon footprint.
  • Convenient & Customizable: Need more or less? Adjust the serving size easily by changing how much concentrate you use.

Customizations and Substitutions for the Perfect Sour Cream

This recipe is endlessly customizable. Here are a few ideas:

  • Herby Flavor: Add dill or parsley for a fresh touch.
  • Spicy Kick: A pinch of cayenne or chipotle makes this sour cream perfect for nachos.
  • Creamier Texture: Use extra JOI concentrate for an extra-silky finish.
  • No Lemons? Swap lemon juice for lime or white vinegar if needed.
