I am not the biggest fan of almond milk but I recently had the chance to try Earth’s Own Almond Fresh and I have to say it was actually really good. I really like using it in my morning smoothie because it’s fewer calories than soy milk and I really can’t tell the difference between a smoothie made with soy or almond milk.
Almond Fresh comes in 4 flavors; chocolate, vanilla, original and unsweetened (which is only 30 calories per serving). Here are some other interesting facts about Almond Fresh:
- Low in calories and one serving provides 45% of your daily recommended dose of vitamin D, 25% of Riboflavin, and 50% of B12
- Dairy-free and does not contain lactose or casein
- Fortified with calcium, vitamin A and vitamin D and contains naturally occurring vitamin E, riboflavin, vitamin B12, iron, phosphorus, magnesium and zinc
- Almond Fresh products are wheat and gluten free and are certified Kosher
- Owned by a Canadian company with a passion for health and wellbeing
So if you don’t like soy milk or can’t have soy, this is a great alternative. And from Sept. 5 – Oct. 30 Almond Fresh is running a contest called “the Real Nutty, Real Joy Sweepstakes”, in which they will be giving people the chance
