THE GOODNESS OF NATURE... At Luz, they believe in the philosophy of nature. Who is Luz? I’m so pleased you asked. I first met some of the Luz Team at the Gluten Free Food Expo earlier this year and recently spent the morning with Julie-Anne chatting all things Luz. Luz is all about ‘Fresh Cold Pressed Almond Milk’. Their range includes: • Original (Unsweetened Almond Milk) • Medjool Date Almond Milk • And their newest release ‘Espresso’ Almond Milk Did you know the possible health benefits of Almond Milk? It’s bursting with nutrients such as vitamin E, zinc, iron and more. Julie-Anne and I could still be chatting! One of the nicest things about Luz, is not only their passion for their products, but health in general including a beautiful story of just how Luz came to be. Whilst Luz are busily delivering quality pesticide free products, they also have some great plans underway including location of their production facilities here in Brisbane. I was blessed to receive bottles of this nourishing goodness for a little taste testing. Such a tough gig!!! My Personal Trainer, Roy Webster also helped me out, knowing how much of a dairy lover Roy is. And so, to quote Roy’s thoughts following his tasting of the Medjool Date Almond Milk…’Loved the almond milk and that is coming from a true dairy lover. Loved it, would buy it!!!’ Thanks so much for assisting with this tough gig, Roy. Meanwhile I tasted both the original and espresso. I had previously tasted the original and thoroughly enjoyed this nourishing, though light and naturally, refreshing taste. A smooth, yet lighter texture to something such as a coconut milk which can be heavier on digestion, for some. And, the espresso. Well anyone who knows me also knows that I appreciate a great coffee and the espresso is definitely my personal favourite. Being a coffee drinker I appreciate the actual espresso taste which packs a satisfying, though not overpowering punch and is super, super smooth. I also decided to use the original blend in our regular breakfast pancakes. These are the MNB Choc-Chia pancakes and call for a coconut milk, usually. The pancakes were equally delicious and possibly even a little lighter using the almond milk. The versatility is great!
