Upcycled Whey Protein Drinks

We can fix this

This fermented beverage concept has been introduced by Arla Foods Ingredients as a solution for combating waste and increasing the yield in the dairy industry. The drink makes use of upcycled acid or sweet whey, which boasts a protein content up to 8% to give it a nutrition-focused profile with a more sustainable edge. The drink also has Nutrilac whety proteins that provide a refreshing flavor and light texture, while also maintaining impressive heat stability when compared to standard milk and whey protein concentrates.

Application Manager, South America at Arla Foods Ingredients Ignacio Estevez spoke on the fermented beverage concept saying, "Getting value out of whey is a significant challenge in dairy production but, as this concept demonstrates, it can be used to create on-trend new products that appeal to both sustainability-conscious and protein-focused consumers. The fact that it can be produced easily and with minimal investment provides an additional incentive to innovate.”
