Almond Breeze launches in SA

Available in two varieties, original and unsweetened, Almond Breeze is a great option for health conscious consumers looking to lead a healthier lifestyle. It is suitable for people with dairy allergies or those following a vegan diet. As almond milk contains no cholesterol, it is also recommended for people suffering from heart disease or high cholesterol and the unsweetened variety has a low glycaemic index (GI) with no added sugar.

"Almond Breeze has been the leading almond milk in the United States for over a decade, offering a high quality and healthy alternative to milk," says Brendan Binder, Global Director of Almond Breeze. "Over the past few years we have successfully launched in a number of markets around the world and we are excited to launch in South Africa, addressing the increasing demand for an alternative to dairy in the country."

Almond Breeze combines the superfood health benefits of almonds with a delicious taste. It is packed with calcium as well as vitamin D and E to support strong bones and healthy skin, making it easier to manage a healthy lifestyle. Although the almonds are imported from California, Almond Breeze is produced locally and distributed by Good Hope International Beverages. It's GMO free, with no additives, MSG or preservatives.

"People are definitely paying more attention to their health, and whatever the reason you are looking for an alternative to dairy, Almond Breeze promises great taste with great health benefits," adds Binder.

Almond Breeze Original and Unsweetened are available in a 1L Tetra Pak and are currently retailing in leading supermarkets, such as Pick n Pay, Checkers and Spar, across the country for a recommended selling price of R34,95.
