Everyone’s heard of soy milk and we all know how popular it is becoming these days with people being more fitness and health conscious. And you probably already have tried almond or coconut milk too. But there’s another type of milk that you’re missing out on and its our favorite: The Blueberry Milk.
And, luckily for you, you’ll be able to buy it in stores soon enough thanks to Oakhurst Dairy.
Unlike soy milk and almond milk, Oakhurst’s blueberry milk isn’t of the non-dairy variety. It’s actually classic milk that’s flavored with wild Maine blueberries, for anyone who wishes to graduate from drinking strawberry milk.
But what about blueberry milk? No, it is not milk made from blueberries—that would just be juice. This is good old, classic cow’s milk flavored with wild Maine blueberries.
Yes, it is the milk flavor that you never knew about. Chocolate milk is obviously a stalwart classic that will always be delicious. Strawberry milk is slightly more adventurous, possibly underappreciated. This Spring, Oakhurst Dairy, which is based in Portland, Maine, will unleash their wild blueberry milk on grocery stores, and we’ll find out where it stands in the rankings of milk flavors.
According to the Press Herald, the Oakhurst variety is a deep purple color and is made with whole milk, and the company promises the milk will actually be flavored by real wild blueberries, not some chemical compound that mimics that flavor of blueberries. Oakhurst already sells chocolate, strawberry, and coffee flavored dairy milks, all of which are made without High Fructose Corn Syrup. Plus, their products are sold at Walmart, which you means you don’t have to live in Maine to try blueberry milk.
There are so many different types of milk these days—dairy and otherwise—that it seems impossible to keep up, but the idea of a wild blueberry milk has plenty to recommend it: Imagine a bowl of freshly picked wild Maine blueberries floating in fresh cream—not as glamorous as the pink, fizzy milk that may soon be coming to America grocery stores, but just about as colorful as you would want your milk to get.
