Just a few years ago, the choices for plant-based milk alternatives were more or less limited to soy and rice milk but consumers can now enjoy a much wider range of alternatives made from everything from oats to nuts. Bright Barley is setting itself apart within the competitive dairy-free market by creating the UK’s first alternative milk made from barley.
Although barley is a beloved ingredient in beers and soups, Bright Barley is on a mission to Bring Barley Back and reposition the super grain in the minds of Western consumers. Bright Barley is doing so with three nutritious, dairy-free beverages in ready-to-drink varieties like Salted Caramel, Chocolate and Coffee.
