It’s the milk of choice in my home because it’s high in protein, lactose free, lower in sugar than leading brands. fairlife starts with American family farmers who are committed to humane animal care and sustainable agriculture. Their unique cold filtration process concentrates the milk’s natural ingredients like protein and calcium while filtering out lactose and reducing the sugar. The resulting effects: a cup of fairlife ultra-filtered milk contains 50% more protein, 50% less sugar and 30% more calcium than conventional milk. Yay that! Moreover, every cup of fairlife milk is a good source of 9 essential vitamins and minerals without any artificial growth hormones. But most most importantly, my family loves the taste.

I do too, and I also love how fairlife ultra-filtered milk can add so much creaminess to recipes—recipes like this alfredo. It allows for full bodied flavor and texture without having to use heavy cream or sacrificing taste. Double yay to that. Now that you are in the know – grab your fairlife and get cooking!
