Mixed Berry Lowfat Greek Yogurt
What it is
This is a lowfat Greek yogurt blended with mixed berries. Greek yogurt is strained to remove much of the whey, resulting in a thicker, creamier texture and a more concentrated flavor compared to regular yogurt. The addition of mixed berries introduces natural sweetness and a fruity taste. It is a dairy product made from fermented milk.
