Sure, you could simply mix spoonfuls of this yogurt, honey and soy-powered powder into filtered water for a diet-friendly drink that keeps you feeling full until your next meal. But there’s more than one way to enjoy Almased – so why not add in a few of your favorite things for maximum satisfaction? Creamy coconut milk is a good place to start, followed by rich cacao and finally, tart cherry juice concentrate, which is literally the cherry on top of this tastes-too-good-to-be-true treat.
