Sprouting from the vegan AND paleo movements, Culina Botanical Yogurt is dairy-free, made with simple ingredients, and packaged in an actual flowerpot. It’s a “craft-fermented” line of coconut yogurt with a low sugar, no funny business label that is sure to attract food purists.
Culina Botanical Yogurt Plants Itself in the Healthy Dairy Alternative Market
This rich dairy-free yogurt isn’t for the faint of heart. It’s super-thick consistency attempts to rival the mouthfeel and versatility of Greek yogurt. But it is much higher in fat (from the coconut base) and very low in protein. Nonetheless, it’s cultured with live and active probiotics and is very modest in sugars.

delicious!
This was so delicious and just what I wanted! I tried the bourbon vanilla and hope I can get lots more when I head back to the store!
Awesome
I wish it were cheaper. Best one on the market in dairy free. I only buy plain. It’s absolutely delicious.
My FAVORITE yogurt, period.
My daughter bought a Culina yogurt (blueberry lavender) for the 1st time 2 days ago, luckily I was around when she took her first bite and remarked how amazing it was and offered a spoonful. Heavenly! The consistency, easily matches traditional greek yogurt but w/out ingredients I wouldn’t eat. The flavor was wonderful, so wonderful that the next day I bought a Culina vanilla, equally wonderful w/ a subtle maple syrup sweetness, just enough, not too sweet. We’ve tried many brands of plant based yogurts, but none have come this far in taste and thickness without adulterating the flavor as a consequence. THANK YOU Erin for creating a *stellar* vegan yogurt! Now if you can only figure out how to make it a bit more affordable so we could buy it in large containers 🙂
Blueberry Lavender
This is the best non-dairy yogurt I have found. The texture is very similar to Greek yogurt and the taste is really great as well. I do think its a bit on the pricey side, but I do appreciate their reusable packaging.
No stomach pains for me
I think this yogurt is a winner..best vegan yogurt i have ever tasted. Too bad my local whole foods barely ever has this yogurt 🙁
Incredible!
Absolutely wonderful coconut yogurt! It’s creamy and mildly tangy, delicious and my 7 yo even loves it.
Thick tangy goodness
Thick consistency of Greek yogurt with great tangy flavor and no disgusting sugary taste. Best vegan yogurt on the market.
Horrible Stomach Ache & explosive diarrhea
Tasted great, vanilla, slightly tangy. But, oh within about an hour I was getting sharp pains and the almost didn’t make it to the bathroom with explosive diarrhea.
Worst I have ever had!
Gave me an awful stomach ache…looks strange , tastes bad and not healthy for the gut…and sorry to not be PC LOL but I could care less if it’s a women owned company, just make a real product with proper culture.
Blueberry Lavender
I bought one container of Culina Blueberry Lavender Yogurt yesterday at Sprouts and must say this is an amazing yogurt. I am really hesitant to try new products but it was in a pretty glass jar and I said okay I’ll try it – if I don’t like it at least I can re-use the jar. I’m hooked this product is delicious! Its a bit pricey – I paid $4.99 for one container but I will pay it again – it is the very best vegan yogurt I have ever had.
