US plant-based beverage brand Califia Farms has announced the launch of new dairy-free plant milks and creamers.

Zero Sugar Oatmilk is said to provide “the rich, creamy and smooth taste of regular oat milk with 0g of sugar per serving,” and is a source of calcium and vitamins A and D. Meanwhile, Oat + Almond Plantmilk Blend offers 60 calories per serving. The new almond and oat blend is also a source of calcium and vitamins A and D. The company is also introducing two new creamer varieties: Cookie Butter Almondmilk, which combines almond milk with the flavour of spiced speculoos cookies; and oat milk-based Cinnamon Roll Oat, which is said to offer the flavour of an iced cinnamon roll. The new creamers can be used in hot or iced coffee, and contain only 3g of sugar per serving. Suzanne Ginestro, chief marketing officer at Califia Farms, said: "As we work to create a future where plants replace dairy without compromise, these newest products offer even more opportunities for consumers to experiment with plant-based options, delivering on the taste, textures and nutritional expectations consumers have for occasions typically involving dairy". The new offerings are rolling out to US retailers, including Kroger, Target and Whole Foods.
