Califia Farms offers a wide range of plant-based milk alternatives made with coconuts, almonds and cashews, as well as oats to satisfy the high demand for oat milk beverages—and it is now introducing a new line of Übermilks that are made with a base of pea, oat and sunflower proteins.
As the name of this oat milk beverage line suggests, these new products are nutritious and "go above and beyond to deliver a good source of protein and other essential nutrients." As of the spring, Califia Farms will be introducing its Übermilks in three varieties: Unsweetened, Unsweetened Vanilla and Chocolate.
With eight grams of plant-based protein per serving, including all eight essential amino acids, these nutrient-rich beverages also help to supply the body with Omegas 3, 6 and 9, as well as calcium, iron, potassium, plus Vitamins D and E.
