AYO Almondmilk Yogurt blends 20 Organic Almonds into Each Serving

Oat milk might be having a moment, but almond milk is still mighty, and it’s been quietly trending in dairy-free yogurt. One brand that recently slid onto store shelves is AYO Almondmilk Yogurt. This fledgling brand sets itself apart by packing nearly an ounce of almonds into each single-serve cup!

AYO Almondmilk Yogurt blends 20 Organic Almonds into Each Serving

The high almond count coupled with the use of fresh fruit means more nutrient density and a better balance of healthy fats, fiber, and protein. They don’t have an unsweetened or plain option yet, but their flavors are lower sugar than most brands, and each variety is produced with three live active cultures.

More Allergen Notes

The packaging on AYO Almondmilk Yogurt states “no dairy” instead of dairy-free (even though they state gluten-free and soy-free), so we asked if they have a big issue with cross-contamination with dairy. Here’s what the company said.

The yogurt is made in a facility that handles dairy but the yogurt is only run at the beginning of a day, in an area dedicated to non dairy AND after a thorough cleaning and sanitizing is done.
