I wonder if it's the same as for jelly beans, where they sometimes use hazelnut flavor as a base for "popcorn"

On the carton it just says flavouring and natural flavouring, so we'll never know..

It's certainly using Diacetyl to flavor it, that's what all buttered popcorn flavoring is. It's fine to drink and occurs naturally (although personally fucking ewwww), but it's super bad to vaporize and inhale. Funny enough, gives you popcorn lung! That's why there's no buttered popcorn vapes anymore.

It's super popular in my friend group with quite a few coffee snobs. I found it best as an iced drink. Steaming tended to burn the sugar for me, which made it taste really bad.

Is the popcorn milk slightly salty? I think theoretically some salt in your coffee would bring out the flavour more.

Yeah, oatly is basically oats and sugar (sugar and oats is maybe closer). I use it to prep my oats for breakfast, and even though I don't add sugar.

This is not about regular Oatly, but about the popcorn flavoured variant. The regular Oatly in my fridge has 3.4g of sugar per 100ml and doesn't list any added sugar in the ingredients. So I'm not sure why you would describe that as "sugar and oats".

Popcorn without salt is an even bigger sacrilege than coffee with popcorn milk.
