Kiki Milk is great for kids because...

⭐ We use none of these things: (no gums, seed oils, refined sugars, preservatives, GMOs, glyphosate, gluten, or soy)

⭐ We do not add any ’natural’ or artificial sweeteners, flavors or colors

⭐ We only source organic whole food ingredients

⭐ Kiki Milk Original and Chocolate are nut free* (we do use coconut)

⭐ Although we are totally organic, we go above and beyond to 3rd party lab-test all our sourced ingredients in an effort to be extra safe because we want to make sure our products do not contain any glyphosate (a common pesticide that is pervasive in US foods) or other harmful substances

⭐ We work closely with leading pediatricians and nutritionists to deliver clean, plant-based milks that support the nutritional needs of growing kiddos

Aquaman is a superhero that possesses superhuman strength, the ability to breathe underwater, and the capacity to communicate telepathically with creatures of the sea, among other powers. Drink Kiki Milk, and you just might be able to do the same!

But, actually:

Aquamin™ is a unique marine multi-mineral complex, providing bioactive calcium, magnesium and approximately 72 other trace marine minerals*. It supports bone health, reduces inflammation, and makes for a happier and healthier gut. It's a seaweed superfood.

Where does it come from?

⭐ Aquamin™ is extracted from the cell wall of the red marine algae, Lithathamnion calcareum, which is harvested from the cold Atlantic waters off the northwest and southwest coast of Ireland. Over the course of its 5-year lifespan, the algae absorb trace minerals from the sea, giving Aquamin™ its unique multi-mineral content. The algae are then naturally broken down and settled into the sea beds forming calcified skeletal remains, which are harvested with international standards for sustainable marine aquaculture.

Why do we use Aquamin™ in Kiki Milk?

⭐ For plant-based calcium! Thanks to some mighty seaweed, Kiki Milk Original has 228 mg of calcium per serving and Kiki Milk Chocolate has 229 mg of calcium per serving. That makes a pretty good dent in your daily calcium targets and gives you real food fuel to get you through the day.

*Aquamin™ contains a wide spectrum of trace minerals assimilated from sea water. Aquamin™ is a natural ingredient and trace mineral levels may vary over time.

We don’t use emulsifiers, AKA chemical additives that bind ingredients together to make them artificially smooth, creamy, and pretty. If you see clumps, that’s actually a good sign. They indicate whole food ingredients which naturally separate. Just give your Kiki Milk a good shake before enjoying and you’ll experience the true taste of nature!

Kiki Milk is processed and packaged in an aseptic carton that allows for a 24-month shelf life for safety markers like microbial levels, yeast, and mold.

However, since Kiki Milk is made with only organic whole food ingredients and no additives or preservatives, like so many other plant milks use, we opted for a conservative 12-month shelf life because we weren’t sure if the taste of our milk would sustain. 

As we passed the one-year mark, we continued to taste and evaluate our milk, and when we hit the 2-year mark on our first production run of each flavor, we were confident we could extend the shelf life as the quality held! We always knew our product would be safe for 24 months, but this validated that we also created a product that would still taste amazing 24 months after it was made and packaged.

In an effort not to fill landfills with perfectly drinkable milk and unnecessary waste, we opted to sticker over the remaining inventory with the new best-by date. We understand this decision may have caused some confusion, and we apologize for any concerns this may have caused. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us if you have any questions at all!

Thanks to our shelf-stable packaging, unopened Kiki Milk will keep safe and flavorful for at least 12 months (or by the “Best if Used By” date) without refrigeration or preservatives! This means you can store it in your pantry or even take it with you when traveling.

However, once you are ready to enjoy Kiki Milk, we highly recommend drinking it cold for the best experience. Simply add a few cartons (or the entire case 😉) of Kiki Milk into your fridge for at least 2 hours before consuming. Pro tip: The more you add to the fridge at once, the more you have on hand to enjoy later without waiting.

If you don’t finish a carton in a single sitting, no problem! Opened Kiki Milk stays fresh for up to seven days as long as you refrigerate it.

Just remember: Real food spoils.
