Hiland Dairy has introduced a new fruit and probiotic smoothie in seven flavors. The drinkable yogurt is packaged in a 7-oz. bottle.
The smoothie is available in Strawberry Banana, Peach, Piña Colada, Strawberry, Mango, Guanábana and Pecan Cereal flavors. The new Hiland Dairy Probiotic Smoothie provides live and active cultures, 6g of protein, 14 percent daily fiber and as much calcium as a glass of milk.
Hiland Smoothies began appearing on retailers’ shelves in October. The suggested retail price is 99 cents per 7-oz. smoothie.
“We are proud to offer this nutritious beverage option for our consumers,” said Rick Beaman, VP of Hiland Dairy Foods Co. “Our consumers are interested in functional foods that provide nutritious benefits on the go. We think our new smoothies fit the bill.”
