Plant-based beverage producer, Califia Farms, has launched its 2024 seasonal line-up, introducing a range of new products aimed at health-conscious consumers.

The collection features popular flavours such as pumpkin spice, alongside innovative offerings, including caramel apple almond latte and maple waffle almond creamer.

The seasonal products are designed to meet the growing demand for better-for-you beverage options, with each item developed to be lower in sugar compared to some sweetened plant-based creamers and ready-to-drink coffee brands.

The line-up is set to roll out to retailers nationwide in the US, catering to the increasing consumer preference for indulgent yet health-conscious alternatives.

Suzanne Ginestro, chief marketing officer of Califia Farms, said: "From classic favourites like pumpkin spice lattes to emerging trends such as caramel apple, our seasonal flavours allow consumers to create café-quality beverages at home".
