Mexico-based dairy company Lala has introduced a new line of traditional Mexican breakfast smoothies, called Licuado. Lala's Licuado, which features milk, fruit and oats, is available in three flavours: papaya, mango-carrot and vanilla honey. Each bottle contains 8g of protein and is a good source of fibre and vitamin A and D. “Lala Licuados are the perfect way to start your morning,” said Matt Okeson, head of marketing for Lala US. “With the goodness of oats, real milk, and a blend of real fruits, Lala Licuados are a Hispanic breakfast standard in a convenient ready-to-drink format.” The new range will be available in the dairy sector in Walmart and at Hispanic-speciality stores from this month.
