Lifeway Lowfat Kefir Review



  Lifeway Kefir Low Fat Cultured Milk Smoothie (32 oz for around $4.00) is a probiotic cultured milk smoothie that contains calcium and protein and is 99% lactose-free. This product is available in two sizes - 32 oz. and 8 oz. - and comes in 13 different flavors including Plain, Strawberry, Pomegranate, Raspberry, Peach, Strawberry Banana, Blueberry, Cherry, Madagascar Vanilla, Mango, Cappuccino, Chocolate Truffle, and Coconut Chia. A serving of this has 140 calories and 20 calories from fat, and each bottle contains four servings.

  The flavor I chose to try out was Strawberry. It has a thicker, yet extremely creamy, texture. I prefer thicker smoothie products, as they last longer and actually fill you up; thinner ones can be finished in a couple of gulps and leave me still feeling hungry. Despite being thicker, it surprisingly didn't feel "heavy". It's also very refreshing (perfect for a hot day!), and the strawberry flavor is subtle, sweet, and slightly tart. So far I have tried this on its own and mixed with granola. Both make great snacks that not only taste super delicious, but are healthy for you. From now on this is going to be a staple in my kitchen!

Poured over granola and sliced almonds.
