Straus Family Creamery Introduces Organic Kefirs in Reusable Glass Bottles
Source: The DairyNews
Renowned for its premium organic dairy products and commitment to sustainable practices, Straus Family Creamery has unveiled a new addition to its lineup – organic lowfat kefirs, available in Plain and Blueberry flavors. In alignment with the company's climate-resilient and zero-waste goals, the kefir is packaged in iconic reusable glass bottles.
Similar to yogurt but with a drinkable consistency, Straus Kefir is a cultured, fermented milk beverage crafted from whole and nonfat milk. The slow fermentation process, coupled with live and active cultures, results in a clean, balanced, and perfectly tart flavor. The kefir is free from additives, thickeners, stabilizers, or preservatives, adhering to Straus' commitment to pure and simple ingredients.
Straus Kefir is expected to reduce CO2e emissions by 495 tonnes annually, equivalent to taking 140 cars off the road. Both flavors offer 11 beneficial live and active cultures, prebiotics, and meet six nutrient claims. The Plain variant is unsweetened, while Blueberry is made with real organic blueberries and minimal added sugar.
Sourced from pasture-based herds in Marin and Sonoma Counties, the organic milk used in Straus products comes from family-owned dairy farms practicing sustainable organic farming. The cows are never treated with hormones or antibiotics, and the grasses are pesticide-free and rich in beta carotene.
Straus Family Creamery continues its tradition of using reusable glass bottles for its dairy products, contributing to a circular economy and zero-waste future. Customers can return the glass bottles for reuse, recycling, or composting, aligning with the company's goal of minimizing environmental impact.
Albert Straus, the founder of Straus Family Creamery, expressed the company's commitment to sustainability and flavor goals with the introduction of the new kefir line. The expansion of organic dairy options aims to support the mission of sustaining family farms and the communities that depend on them.
Straus Family Creamery Organic Lowfat Kefir will be available at select retailers in Northern California and other states, with a suggested retail price of $6.49. The product reflects Straus' dedication to providing high-quality organic dairy while promoting sustainable and eco-friendly practices.
