When Califia launched their yogurt drinks last year, many skeptics voiced their doubt. Several dairy-free yogurt beverages had already emerged and silently disappeared over the past decade. But it looks like Califia Farms Dairy-Free Yogurt Drinks may have finally achieved success for this category.
Perhaps it was the $50 million infusion of capital that gave Califia a big advantage, but their yogurt drinks have taken hold. In fact, as of last fall, you can find these probiotic drinks in roughly 7000 stores across the U.S.
Califia Farms Dairy-Free Yogurt Drinks Stay Alive with Active Probiotics
Califia has their own “culture blend,” which contains 10 billion live, active probiotic CFUs. And it includes BB-12, the most documented bifidobacteria in the world, well known for aiding in digestive and immune health.
These cultured nutmilk beverages are made with a rich blend of their classic almondmilk and coconut cream. The sweet flavored varieties come in single serves and larger multi-serve bottles. The unsweetened variety just comes in the large multi-serve bottle.

Delicous!
I had a rough bout with ear infections and was on a long stint of antibiotics. I prefer probiotics in food versus pills, but try to avoid dairy. I was excited when my daughter told me about Califia Farms plant-based yogurt drinks. I have tried all the flavors but prefer the plain due to the lower sugar content. I have been drinking it daily for a few months. It saved my stomach from the side effects of the antibiotics, but now that I am no longer taking them it helps with my daily digestion. Plus it tastes delicious! I am a huge fan.
A Little Skeptical at First
This was my first time trying Califia Yogurt and truly enjoyed!! Pleasantly
surprised!!
I think it tasted pretty good and really soothed my stomach after spicy food.
I think it tasted pretty good and really soothed my stomach after spicy food. Wish it cost a little less.
Probiotic shake was awful
I was exited to try the shake but did and was very disappointed. It had a strange taste to it and will never buy again.
