our interest in infant and childhood
nutrition. And so, we decided to become

serve like-minded parents better and with
the confidence they need to raise a happy,
healthy eater.

YOGURT DRINKS
To be honest, these recipes were born
out of our own personal needs. Now it's
time to share it with you. Our children
love store-bought yogurt beverages!
Yours might too!
Unfortunately, their packaging isn't
great for our planet and so we designed
5 recipes that contain whole food
ingredients, no added sugar and they're
budget friendly. Enjoy!
