The Buzz about Beber Almondmilk |
While some may argue that “An almond doesn’t lactate,” there’s no debating that plant-based milks are having a moment. Nearly half of shoppers in America are now buying milks made from nuts, soy, oats, and other non-mammalian sources. And almond milk accounts for two-thirds of all plant milks sold.
Twenty-five-year-old Arielle Danan of Chico-based Beber Almondmilk is on the leading edge of the trend with her flavorful and sustainably sourced milks made from California-grown almonds. |
