Kite Hill Dips Review & Info (Dairy-Free Ranch & French Onion)

That $40 million infusion of cash from General Mills has paid off for Kite Hill. They upgraded their yogurt packaging, expanded their cream cheese alternative line, and have also launched a line of dips. In late 2019, they announced French Onion and Ranch flavors, and in June 2020, they slipped the first dairy-free Tzatziki Dip onto store shelves.

Their latest variety is a classic-style dairy-free tzatziki with dill, cucumber, and garlic in a creamy almond milk base. And of course, they squeeze in some lemon to heighten the herby notes and round out the flavor.

Kite Hill Dips hit the Bullseye with Three Popular Dairy-Free Flavors

These dips are made with Kite Hill’s classic clean almond-based formula and are fermented with live and active cultures, just like their yogurts. Since their yogurt tends to be sour, it might be the perfect base for these beloved savory flavors. If you buy any of these varieties, leave your rating and review below!
