Delamere Dairy to launch dairy-alternative drink

Alternative dairy company Delamere Dairy is set to launch a new range of plant-based drinks for consumption in or out of home.

Launching in August, Planted will hit store shelves with two products, Oat Drink with banana; and Coconut Drink with Cocoa, both in 1 litre cartons.

Delamere will follow this launch with the release of four 330ml on-the-go varieties, including two extra flavours, Almond Drink with Coffee and Oat Drink with Date & Vanilla. 

Suitable for consumers choosing to follow a Vegan diet, the products are a source of calcium, vitamin D and vitamin B12.

At least 2p from every 1 litre carton sold will be donated to the Woodland Trust to help plant and protect trees and woods across the UK.
