Dairy Month & MOO’V™ Challenge

By realdari / May 31, 2023

June is an Exciting Month

Not only does summer officially start in June (June 21st to be exact) but the whole month of June is National Dairy Month. For over 80 years, it has been the perfect opportunity to encourage family members to make milk their NUTRITIOUS beverage of choice and take advantage of all things dairy – Milk, cheese, and even ice cream! Many local fairs and festivals may provide taste testing from neighboring dairies

With all our outside activities, summer is the perfect time to enjoy nutrient-rich dairy foods. Loaded with vitamins and minerals such as calcium to potassium, dairy products like milk contain nine essential nutrients which is why they are known as a natural nutrient powerhouse.

Introducing MOO’V™ Real Milk…Fueling Kids For life.

MOO’V™ is the latest addition to the dairy family, and offers a deliciously refreshing line of ultra-filtered, lactose-free whole milk that provides 19g of complete protein in every 14 FL OZ bottle! With 3 authentic flavors, each satisfying sip will provide your children with the natural fuel they need no matter what the time of day.

The MOO’V™ Challenge.

The essence of MOO’V™ Real Milk is to keep a growing body performing at its best from morning ‘til night. We believe staying active and healthy is important but know that isn’t always possible.

Press Release: DARI^®, Launches MOO’V™

A Lactose-Free, High-Protein, Low Sugar, Naturally Flavored Milk Beverage for Kid’s Health

By realdari / May 30, 2023

DARI^®, a trailblazer in the dairy industry announces the launch of their new line, MOO’V™, an ultra-filtered, lactose-free, whole milk beverage that consumers will be able to find in three satisfying flavors. MOO’V™ is a high protein, low sugar beverage delivering optimized nutritional benefits to kids. The revolutionary approach of using natural flavors to enhance the already delicious taste of milk provides a drink with no need for additional sugar or added colors. Plus, the lactose-free, whole milk formula allows for easy digestion and sustainable energy. The new 14oz grab-and-go drink provides 19 grams of protein and only 7 grams of naturally occurring sugars.

Knowing there is a growing need for healthy and functional drinks, especially for kids, this is the time for the dairy industry to step in and revolutionize the space with the power of real milk. This trend is seen with existing lactose-free flavored milks, but oftentimes those products, targeted to kids, counter the benefits of milk by adding unnecessary sugar. MOO’V™ loses the sugar and delivers the great taste of Vanilla Ice Cream, Strawberry Cream, and Cinnamon Swirl Horchata with natural flavors.

This line of beverages has been in development for over three years by a 4^th generation family farm, committed to delivering high quality, great taste, and convenient real milk drinks to consumers. In addition to having a functional drink for parents to provide to their children, DARI^® seeks to provide an entertaining experience to kids through their creative packaging design. On each bottle, they will learn something unique about where their food comes from, the nutritional value of real milk and they will experience an entertaining surprise from a dancing cow named Morgan, a 3D augmented reality character for smartphones and similar devices.

“We have been very pleased with the reactions from parents regarding the nutritional benefits of MOO’V™. In addition, the kids love the taste and seem to really resonate with the idea of experiencing the brand. It’ll just be a question if the kids get to drink it before the parents find out how great the product tastes!” Comment Dan Ellsworth, DARI^® CEO.

Throughout the development of the product key support has been provided by the Dairy Checkoff and the Center for Dairy Research with current product trends and consumer insight for the innovation of this product.

MOO’V™ ultra-filtered, lactose-free, low-sugar beverage can be found in Hy-Vee grocery stores along with many convenience stores throughout the Upper Midwest. You can learn more about our product and our farm at Dari^® & MOO’V™ (realdari.com) or check us out by using this QR code.

S’MOOVIES

By Leslie Bonci

By realdari / May 24, 2023

As a mom, glam-ma and registered dietitian, I am all about one-stop shopping to bring the nutrish and delish to the glass, bowl or dish. Smoothies are so incredibly popular and a great way to help your kids get the nutrition they need every day. Sure, you can buy ready-made smoothies or stop at a smoothie bar, but not all those products are kid friendly and sometimes the sugar content is far from optimal. So how about making our own S’MOO’Vies to personalize and optimize?

Smoothies typically contain:
Liquid + Fruit/Vegetable + Some Fun Additions

Using MOO’V™ Real Milk as base provides the protein and fat and adding produce, grains, healthy fats and seasonings bring the flavor to savor as well as upping fruit and veggie intake.

FALL SMOO’VIE

14 fl. oz. Horchata or Vanilla MOO’V™
½ cup Pumpkin, canned
2 tbsp. Honey Flavored Peanut Butter
2 tbsp. Almond Butter
Pumpkin Pie Flavoring, to taste
