A variety of new [dairy-free products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/strawberry-bananamilk) are consistently being released to offer consumers an alternative to milk products, but The Farmer’s Cow Honey Vanilla Milk identifies a return to simple, wholesome ingredients in milk drinks.

The limited-edition milk is made in small batches and packaged in collectible bottles with each one cup serving containing just 180 calories and [eight grams of protein](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alta-dena-protein-milk). The milk drink is free from artificial ingredients including colors and flavors, while it is also [sweetened naturally](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hive-mind-honeyade) and with sugar rather than high-fructose corn syrup.

The Farmer’s Cow Honey Vanilla Milk is created using honey that has been sourced in Connecticut from Hilltop Apiaries, natural vanilla flavor and whole milk that is already naturally sweet to limit the need for added sugar.
