Hälsa Oatgurt Blends Dairy-Free Nutrition and Pure Scandinavian Tradition

The cool name of Hälsa beckons to the founders’ native land. But they’ve called the U.S. home for over 20 years, and wanted to create a drinkable yogurt that shared their natural food beliefs. Hälsa Oatgurt is made with organic Scandinavian whole grain oats, live cultures, prebiotics, and organic fruit juices. It has no added sugar, no dairy, and not a drop of anything artificial. Yet I must say that it tastes pretty darn good.

Halsa Oatgurt is a drinkable dairy-free yogurt made with oats and fruit juices. Rich in prebiotics and probiotics

Tasting Notes for Hälsa Oatgurt

All of the flavors we taste-tested had a very thick, creamy, smoothie-like consistency. They are very smooth and drinkable on their own, but also blend well into homemade smoothies. They are all fruit-forward in flavor, but have a very slight “oat” finish.

Strawberry

This was hands down our favorite variety. It had a very fresh strawberry flavor that was just sweet enough. In fact, the sweet-tart taste made it a bit of a treat!

Ingredients – fermented organic whole grain oats, organic strawberry and apple juice blend, pea protein, organic flavors, citric acid. Live cultures, Bifidus.

Mango Pear

This was the sweetest of the three and tasted a bit more apple and orange than mango and pear. But the four fruit blend makes a delicious, comforting melange overall.

Ingredients – fermented organic whole grain oats, organic mango, pear, apple and orange juice blend, pea protein, organic flavors, citric acid. Live cultures, Bifidus.

Blueberry

A touch less sweet than the other two, I liked this flavor for the morning. The slightly subdued taste was pleasantly sweet with a touch of blueberry tartness.

Ingredients – fermented organic whole grain oats, organic blueberry and apple juice blend, pea protein, organic flavors, citric acid. Live cultures, Bifidus.
