Blue Diamond Growers has added a new product to its Almond Breeze plant milk range, an Almond & Oat Blend drink.
The California-based almond grower said that the new addition to the Almond Breeze range combines the flavour of California almonds with the creaminess of oat milk.
It contains more calcium than dairy milk and fewer calories and less sugar than other oat milks available on the market, Blue Diamond said. A one-cup serving contains 4g total sugar, 45 kcal and 450mg of calcium.
The product can be enjoyed as an alternative to dairy milk in any usage occasion, including with coffee, cereal or by the glass.
Maya Erwin, vice president of innovation and R&D at Blue Diamond, said: “We know that eating healthier is on the forefront of a lot of consumers’ minds, and are excited to offer this product that is both delicious and nutritious”.
She added: “Almond Breeze Original Almond & Oat Blend not only provides a great taste and creamy texture, but it is also a healthier alternative to other oat milks”.
The product will be available in grocery stores and major retailers beginning January 2024.
