One of the newest additions to Kite Hill's product portfolio is a vegan, dairy-free Queso dip made with a base of creamy almond milk. The queso alternative also includes other key ingredients like tomatoes, bell pepper, jalapeño and black carrot juice for color and flavor. Thanks to the use of homemade cultured almond milk, the product is said to achieve a consistency that's creamy and familiar without actually using dairy.
While the brand has shared a recipe for making creamy vegan queso with non-dairy yogurt in the past, this one needs no work to be enjoyed.
This brand-new dip from Kite Hill joins existing options like Tzatziki, Ranch and French Onion, which make it easy to enjoy the flavors of classic dips without the dairy.
