Uproot sprouted up in 2018 in Providence, Rhode Island. Their goal was to make plantmilk that exceeds dairy milk in quality, and is accessible to hospitals, colleges and k-12 schools. To encourage growth, they’ve relocated to New York, and now serve institutions throughout the Northeast. They’ve also launched their first retail products! Uproot Milk Single Serves are shelf-stable, ready for lunchboxes and purses, and come in two varieties.

Great fortified options
My family tried both varieties, and there’s a lot to like. They’re shelf-stable, great to pack along, and they’re adequately fortified with calcium, vitamin D, and vitamin B12 – comparable to milk, even more calcium than milk. The chocolate peamilk has a nice clean sweetness from the cane sugar, and I like that it’s still lower in sugar than most chocolate milks. It’s comparable to Ripple, and we liked it. But it’s definitely best cold / refrigerated. The oat milk has no added sugar, but still mild sweetness. It has a definite oat milk flavor, which I know some people like. For us, it’s good for cereal or baking. The convenient size is great.
