Fro-yo girl here. I first tried and reviewed Coconut Cult in 2022. I tried the Original Coconut Yogurt and found the texture to be grainy and the fermented flavor was very strong. The ingredients were simple: coconuts and probiotics.
Recently, I noticed that Target started carrying Coconut Cult mini 4 oz cups. The packaging looked appealing. There is 200 billion CFU per cup and 16 live probiotic strains. The cups are $3.99 each.
Coconut Cult minis are made with the same live fermented coconut yogurt as the larger 8 fl oz and 16 fl oz jars. The yogurt is organic and contains no gums, fillers, or preservatives.
One thing to note is that the minis are small, smaller than your typical cup of yogurt, and each cup contains two servings. One serving is a mere 2 oz.
Available flavors:
- Apple cinnamon roll
- Cookies & cream
- Banana cream pie
- Organic berry basket: very intense berry flavor but also intense coconut flavor, it’s super rich, super thick, and super tangy. The yogurt is made with freeze-dried raspberries and blueberries. One 2 oz serving is 160 calories, 12g total fat, 8g total carbs, 6g total sugars, and 2g protein.
- Lemon meringue: thick, rich, super tangy, also pretty sweet, strong coconut and lemon flavors. One 2 oz serving is 100 calories, 8g total fat, 7g total carbs, 5g total sugars, and 2g protein. It's not as thick as berry basket though.
I’m glad I gave Coconut Cult another try. The yogurt is super flavorful, thick, and rich, thanks to the coconut cream and the fermentation.
Coconut Cult froyo launched this year. You can get it at Nude Miami and Sunlife Organics in the Hamptons.

Fro-yo girl here. I recently found a new yogurt at Erewhon, from Green Table Café, a vegan eatery in Los Angeles. Greentable Yogurt is a plant-based almond yogurt that’s vegan, soy-free, kosher, organic, gluten-free, and probiotic. It’s made with no preservatives and no additives. Vegan almond yogurt is surprisingly hard to find.
I found Greentable Yogurt at Erewhon. The yogurt is sold in glass jars. One 16 oz jar was $10.99, regular price. There are two flavors: Unsweetened Plain, Vanilla sweetened with agave. The yogurt is Greek-style.
Vanilla Almond: The yogurt had a smooth, silky texture. I could definitely taste the almonds as well as the sourness and tang that you’d expect from lightly sweetened yogurt. The vanilla flavor was faint. The aftertaste was subtly sweet. The taste was pleasant. It’s not as rich as coconut or dairy-based yogurt but would be quite nice in smoothies or topped with fruit and granola. It’s not as thick as dairy-based Greek yogurt.
One ¾ cup serving is 140 calories, 9g total fat, 13g total carbs, 5g total sugars, and 6g protein.

Fro-yo girl here. On a recent trip to the new Meat & Essentials, the new butchery and mindful market in San Marino, I spotted a brand of yogurt that I’ve never seen before, G-Pa Ryc Organics Durty Gut YogArt. It’s organic, vegan, non-GMO, gluten-free, and locally produced (in Ventura, CA). I spotted three flavors: Lemon Vanilla Bean, Midnite Magick Dark Chocolate, and Vanilla Bean. They come in glass jars. One 16 oz jar of YogArt was $20. A portion of profits go to building houses for Widows in Ethiopia and orphans in Honduras.
Lemon Vanilla Bean YogArt: The texture is the thickest and smoothest that I’ve ever encountered in a yogurt. It has a pot set quality. It’s very rich but so good too – like eating a dense lemony cream that isn’t too sweet but has an intriguing tang. It tastes so much better than The Coconut Cult but it’s not clear how many active cultures or what type of cultures are in their yogurt.
YogArt is sweetened with maple sugar and coconut sugar, not refined sugar. The main ingredient is coconut cream. It also has active cultures so it’s good for your gut. Coconut cream is super rich, so the serving size is just 1.75 tbsp. One serving is 120 calories, 10g total fat, 0 cholesterol, 3g total sugars, and 0g protein.

Fro-yo girl here. I’ve been wanting to try The Coconut Cult probiotic coconut yogurt for years, but it was crazy expensive and I wasn’t sure if I’d like it (I don’t like a strong coconut flavor). The 16 oz jar was $25 when it launched in 2017. Fortunately, they introduced a smaller jar, 8 ounces. I found it on sale at Whole Foods for $6.99 (regular price $9.99).
The Coconut Cult yogurt is organic, vegan, soy-free, and gluten-free. One serving is 70 calories, 6g total fat, 3g total carbohydrates, 2g figer, 1g sugars, and 1g protein. It also has 16 probiotic strains. It’s made with coconuts and probiotics – and that’s all. The first ingredient is coconut meat. The packaging says it's ceremonial grade coconut yogurt. I've never heard of ceremonial grade coconut anything.
The Coconut Cult differs from regular coconut yogurt because it’s a highly concentrated form of yogurt with more probiotics. There are 800 billion highly active probiotics / CFUs (CFU = colony forming unit) in every quart and 25 billion probiotics per 1 ounce serving. For those taking probiotic supplements, the dosages for adults range from five billion to 10 billion CFUs per day. The other argument for The Coconut Cult is that the probiotics are digested more readily in yogurt form than in capsule form.
Original Coconut Yogurt: It’s much thicker than other brands of coconut yogurt. The texture is like coconut cream blended with coconut meat. I wasn’t fond of the grainy texture. In terms of flavor, the yogurt was tart, sour, and had a strong coconut flavor. It also tasted funky and fermented. I’m not a fan. Culina is sour and coconut based too, but it tastes less fermented and has a smoother texture.
Available flavors: Original, Mangos N’ Cream, Chocolate Mousse, Vanilla Toffee

Fro-yo girl here. Now you can get plant-based India-style yogurt thanks to the new Dah! line from DAHLicious. Dah! almond yogurt is dairy-free, organic, kosher, gluten-free and has 15 billion live probiotics. The yogurt is slow-cultured at a lower temperature, leading to a rich and creamy texture. There’s a full serving of almonds in every cup. They use organic whole fruits to flavor the yogurt.
I found Dah! at Bristol Farms in South Pasadena, CA. The yogurt was on sale, 3 for $5. The regular price is $2.29. Each cup is 5.3 oz. The products were introduced at Natural Products Expo West last year.
Available flavors: Plain, Alphonso Mango, Wild Blueberry, Field Strawberry, Madagascar Vanilla
Field Strawberry almond yogurt: The yogurt was thick, rich, and creamy. It tasted like almonds with a mild strawberry flavor. I liked the tanginess and texture. It wasn’t too sweet. It was comparable to dairy yogurt. Mr. Froyo liked it too. One serving is 190 calories, 14g total fat, 3g fiber, 8g sugars, and 6g protein. 4.5 out of 5 stars.
Ingredients: Organic almond milk (filtered water, organic almonds), organic strawberries, organic cane sugar, organic starch, organic locust bean gum, organic strawberry flavor, organic fruit and vegetable juice for color, organic lemon juice concentrate, live and active cultures.
Madagascar vanilla: I didn’t like this flavor as much – tanginess, almond, and vanilla might not be as complementary as tanginess, almond, and fruit. It tasted chalkier. I didn’t have any problems finishing it off but I didn’t love it. The sweet chalkiness lingered on my palate. One serving is 180 calories, 14g total fat, 3g fiber, 8g sugars, and 6g protein. 3.5 out of 5 stars.

Fro-yo girl here. The new coconut-based yogurt products keep coming. I recently found Cocojune on sale at Sprouts for $1.99 (regular price, $2.29). The shelf tag also said it was new. Cocojune’s line of organic cultured coconut yogurt is plant-based, vegan, probiotic (with billions of probiotics), non-GMO, pesticide free. The flavors also sounded interesting and appealing. One container is 4 oz (smaller than usual).
The paper cup is eco-friendly. They also claim to have better probiotics. “Our probiotics are science-backed. We’ve teamed up with a leading Danish culture bank to develop our probiotic blend. Each serving of cocojune comes with 30 billion CFU, and includes some of the world’s most researched probiotic strains, such as “BB-12” and “LA-5”. We believe in using cultures with proven potency, as not all strains are created equal.”
Available flavors: Pure Coconut, Vanilla Chamomile, Strawberry Rhubarb, Lemon Elderflower
Strawberry Rhubarb: The consistency was not as thick as Greek yogurt but the yogurt was pretty smooth after stirring. Flavorwise, I really liked how it tasted natural and tangy, and it wasn’t too sweet. The luxurious coconut cream flavor dominated but I could taste the strawberries too. The finish was clean and the berry/rhubarb flavor lingered. Wish it were thicker though. One serving is 15g total fat, 11g total carbs, 7g total sugars and 1g protein.
Lemon Elderfower: The Lemon Elderflower yogurt was a little clumpy because the cream seems to rise to the top. I recommend stirring. The consistency seemed a little thicker than the Strawberry Rhubarb. Lemon Elderflower was quite tangy and sourer than Strawberry Rhubarb. The floral hint of elderflower was pleasant and lingered. The lemon was lost in the sourness and the strong flavor of the coconut cream. One serving is 16g total fat, 10g total carbs, 7g total sugars and 1g protein. Ingredients: organic coconuts, spring water, organic elderflower, organic cane sugar, organic lemon juice, vitamin C, organic cassava root, organic carob bean gum, vegan probiotic cultures.
The verdict: Cocojune is one of the better coconut based yogurts available, second only to Culina.
4.5 out of 5 stars.

Fro-yo girl here. I first spotted Culina Yogurt at Sprouts a few months ago, but it was pricey (over $4), so I didn’t get it. I finally found it at Lassens for $3.99. Surprisingly, Sprouts charges quite a bit more than Lassen's and Whole Foods. The packaging changed from the terracotta pots to clear glass jars. The jars look like the kind you’d use to make your own yogurt at home. One jar is 5 oz.
Based in Austin, Texas, Culina is a woman-owned business that makes thick, probiotic, fermented coconut yogurt. The plant-based, vegan, paleo yogurt has no gums, starches or fillers. I like how it’s made with a few ingredients and is all-natural. I also like the glass jar and the recipes that come with the jars of yogurt. I bet that it would make incredible frozen yogurt. I wish they offered more flavors.
* Strawberry Rose: I’ve tried my share of plant-based, dairy-free yogurt, and Culina’s is the best that I've tried. Thanks to the coconut cream, it’s rich and creamy. The fermentation provides that sour taste of dairy yogurt that’s often missing from plant-based yogurt. It’s truly thick and tangy. And they don’t mess it up by adding too much sugar. The texture was smooth though some separation had occurred (stir before consumption). So good! I could taste the strawberry and coconut, but I didn’t notice the rose oil though.
* Bourbon Vanilla: Also very good with mild vanilla flavor.
Available flavors: Plain & Simple, Bourbon Vanilla, Blueberry Lavender, Strawberry Rose
Ingredients (Strawberry Rose): Organic coconut, water, organic strawberries, organic maple syrup, agar, rose oil, probiotic cultures.
One serving of Strawberry Rose is 220 calories, 18g total fat, 11g carbs, 9g sugars, and 2g protein. The yogurt is high in fat but it’s worth the indulgence.
5 out of 5 stars.

Fro-yo girl here. I’m a fan of GT’S kombucha, so I was curious about their plant-based coconut yogurt line, CocoYo. I found CocoYo at Whole Foods, on sale for $4.99 a jar. The regular price was $5.99. The yogurt comes in clear glass jars. Each jar contains 8 oz of yogurt, larger than the average cup of yogurt. The yogurt is vegan, gluten-free, Kosher Pareve and contains billions of probiotics. The proprietary probiotic blend includes 25 billion cfu per ½ cup. There are two servings per jar. One serving contains 110 calories, 8g total fat, 6g total carbs, 1g protein, and 1g sugars.
Vanilla: The texture is different from other brands. It has tiny bits of coconut meat, so it’s not as smooth but it’s more substantial. The flavor was tangy, as you’d expect from a fermented product. The vanilla flavor was not strong. It’s unfortunate that they chose to use stevia because it has a sweet but to me, unpleasant, aftertaste. The Pure flavor doesn’t contain stevia. Anyway, I wasn’t that fond of the gritty coconut meat texture either. It does taste like yogurt but the texture and the stevia ruin it for me. Still, I appreciate the short list of ingredients and the tang.
Ingredients (Vanilla): Raw young coconut, raw young coconut water, probiotic cultures, organic vanilla extract, organic stevia.
Available flavors: Pure (plain), Raspberry, Vanilla, Cacao
3.5 out of 5 stars.

Fro-yo girl here. I first tried Ripple’s Greek Yogurt Alternative product about 1 ½ years ago. It wasn’t a positive experience. Then the product disappeared from shelves. I guess I wasn’t the only one who didn’t like it.
Recently, I noticed the return of Ripple Yogurt, with new packaging and a new formulation. It’s no longer positioned as a Greek yogurt alternative, but instead is called a Creamy Yogurt Alternative. Of course, their yogurt features Ripple’s proprietary Ripptein pea protein. Interestingly, Ripple admits that they “messed up” their first attempt at yogurt, because of scalability issues.
I found Ripple Creamy Yogurt Alternative at Target for $2.35 each. One cup is the standard yogurt size, 5.3 oz. The product is nut free, soy free, gluten free, lactose free, and vegan.
Available flavors: Original, Blueberry, Peach, Strawberry, Vanilla
* Vanilla Yogurt: The color was light yellow-grey and I could see the tiny vanilla bean specks. It seemed to smell better than I remembered, like vanilla protein powder. The texture was smooth and creamy, but not as thick as Greek yogurt. The flavor was sweet with a little tang and a sweet aftertaste. It tasted like vanilla soy milk with protein powder. Not bad. It’s an improvement.
* Strawberry Yogurt: The greyish light pink color wasn’t appealing but the flavor was better than I expected. The texture was smooth, creamy and a bit thicker than the vanilla yogurt. There were tiny pieces of strawberry and seeds throughout. The strawberry made it a bit tangier than the vanilla yogurt and it wasn’t that sweet. It also had that soy milk meets protein powder taste. It was light on the tongue, with a clean aftertaste.
I recommend stirring the yogurt before consuming it. Doing so makes the texture smoother.
One serving is 160 calories, 6g total fat, 15g sugars, and 6g protein. It has more sugar and less protein compared to the earlier Ripple Greek Yogurt Alternative.
Ingredients (Strawberry Yogurt): Pea protein blend (water, pea protein), water, organic cane sugar, sunflower oil, strawberries, tapioca flour, contains less than 2% of strawberry puree, yeast extract, pectin, locust bean gum, beet juice concentrate for color, natural flavors, live and active cultures.
3.5 out of 5 stars.

Fro-yo girl here. Lavva is another line of plant-based yogurt. It’s different from other plant-based yogurt because it’s made with Pili nuts, coconut, and plantains. Also, Lavva has prebiotics and 50 million probiotics. And it’s made with no added sugar (yay!). The fruit flavors are 100% real fruit and the ingredients are 80% organic. The yogurt has no gums or stabilizers. The Pili nuts are sustainably harvested, sprouted, organic, and fair trade certified. It sounds really good on paper.
I found Lavva at Whole Foods for $1.79 cup (regular price, $2.49). One cup is 5.3 oz.
* Vanilla: The texture was about as thick as regular, unstrained yogurt though not as smooth. It was not gelatinous. I noticed lots of vanilla bean specks. Flavor wise, it was buttery with a hint of coconut and vanilla. The flavor was sweet with a mild tang. Very nice – it tasted natural.
* Raspberry: The raspberry is blended throughout. I was surprised by how tangy this flavor was – even though it has more sugar than the vanilla, it is much tangier. I mostly tasted raspberry with a hint of coconut. The other flavors were overwhelmed by the raspberry. One serving is 140 calories, 11g fat, 9g carbs, 7g sugars, and 2g protein.
Ingredients (Raspberry): Coconut water, coconut cream, raspberry, plantains, Pili nuts, coconut powder, cassava root, lime juice, Himalayan salt, live vegan cultures.
I don’t think I’ve had Pili nuts before. They’re grown in Australia, Southeast Asia and Pacific Islands.
Available flavors: Original, Vanilla, Strawberry, Raspberry, Blueberry, Mango, Pineapple
Lavva makes the best plant-based yogurt I’ve tried so far. I tend not to like a strong coconut flavor and while I can taste coconut in Lavva, it’s not too strong. The natural sweetness and higher fat are probably why it’s so good.

Fro-yo girl here. I found a new yogurt product at Sprouts: Nancy’s Probiotic Oatmilk Non-Dairy Yogurt. The shelf tag said new. Each cup was $1.99. I’ve never had oatmilk yogurt before. It’s described as “A creamy and delicious plant-based yogurt alternative, made from gluten-free Oatmilk and offering 6g of plant protein per serving. And of course, each serving has Billions of LIVE dairy-free Probiotics!” It’s gluten-free, kosher.
* Vanilla: The appearance was unusual – light brown & slick. It’s not creamy but more like jelly. The flavor was pleasant: tangy, sour with a light vanilla flavor and an oat aftertaste. One serving is 100 calories, 6 oz, 1.5g fat, 7g sugars & 16g carbs.
* Strawberry Hibiscus: This was also like jelly but the strong strawberry flavor overwhelmed the oat flavor. It was tangy and sour. It was light and a little chalky. It might be too sour for most people. The flavor is good but the texture is unusual.
Available flavors: Plain, Blueberry, Strawberry Hibiscus, Vanilla
Ingredients (Vanilla): Oatmilk (water, whole oat flour), faba bean protein, organic cane sugar, strawberry puree, tapioca flour, coconut oil, concentrate (hibiscus and apple), strawberry natural flavor, hibiscus natural flavor, vegetable juice (color), agar, citric acid, live non-dairy yogurt cultures: S. Thermophilus, L. Bulgaricus.

Fro-yo girl here. COYO is the first commercially available cultured yogurt alternative made with coconuts. The founder grew up in Fiji, where he collected coconuts and scraped them for dinner. Later, this inspired him to make yogurt out of coconut milk with probiotics.
Whole Foods has been carrying COYO for awhile now. I found COYO for $2.99. It is dairy-free, gluten free, non-GMO, vegan/paleo, gum free and has no added sugar.
* Natural: I was surprised by how thick and clumpy the yogurt was when I opened it. It was thicker than Greek yogurt and even skyr. I recommend stirring it so that it looks smoother and less clumpy. It was so thick that it reminded me of cream cheese, only coconut flavored. Sourness was present but not overwhelmingly so. The coconut flavor was quite prominent. It was too rich and heavy to eat like a regular yogurt, but I quite liked it spread on toast. It would work well for savory applications as well.
One container is 5.3 oz. One serving is 5.3 oz, 390 calories, 38g total fat, 5g sugars, 3g protein, and 10g carbohydrates.
Ingredients (natural): Coconut cream (coconut extract, water), tapioca, pectin, probiotic cultures.
Available flavors: Natural, Mango, Chocolate, Vanilla Bean, Mixed Berry

Fro-yo girl here. Mr. Froyo and I tried Ripple, the plant-based, pea protein milk, a couple of months ago and he really likes it. In fact, he prefers it to milk and consumes it regularly. We get the unsweetened original kind which has a good amount of protein, iron, and vitamin D and no sugar. It’s soy-free, nut-free, GMO-free, gluten-free, and lactose free. Even though there’s no sugar, it still tastes mild and sweet to me, like soymilk. And it’s not thin but it’s actually fairly rich and creamy. We were excited to try Ripple’s new product, Ripple Greek Yogurt Alternative with live active cultures.
It wasn’t easy to track down Ripple Yogurt in Los Angeles. I kept checking the shelves at Sprouts, Whole Foods, Gelson’s, and Target. No luck. But, I finally found it at Ralph’s for $2.39 each. This location only had two flavors, Plain and Vanilla.
* Plain Yogurt: It smelled different than Ripple Unsweetened Original Milk. The plain yogurt smelled like protein powder. I didn’t like the smell. The color was greyish brown, like Ripple milk. The texture was smooth and creamy. The taste was not what I expected. It wasn’t sweet, which was fine, or tangy but it was sour. I’m fine with sour yogurt but the chalky, yeasty, protein powder taste wasn’t pleasant. It was better than Vega’s because they didn’t add Stevia. I don’t think adding other flavors to it would make it taste better. Mr. Froyo thought it was okay. He said he could see "why most people wouldn't like it" and that he was surprised that Ripple released it. And he also wanted me to emphasize that he loves Ripple pea milk.
One serving is 140 calories, 5g total fat, 6g sugars, and 12g protein.
Ingredients: Water, Ripptein (pea protein), organic cane sugar, sunflower oil, tapioca flour, pectin, natural flavors, locust bean gum, dipotassium phosphate, yeast extract, citric acid, cultures (Bifidobacterium bifidum, L. Acidophilus, L. Casei, L. Bulgaricus, L. Rhamnosus, S. Thermophilus).
Pasteurized organic whole milk, vitamin D3, live and active cultures
Available flavors: Original, Strawberry, Blueberry, Vanilla, Maple

Fro-yo girl here. Plant-based dairy alternative products keep taking up more shelf space at supermarkets. I spotted Vega Protein Cashewmilk Yogurt Alternative at Sprouts for $1.79 on sale ($1.99 retail price). It features 13g of protein, live active cultures (prebiotics and probiotics) and more protein than sugar. Also, Vega’s yogurt is certified vegan, gluten-free, and non-GMO project verified. One 150g serving is 180 calories, 8g total fat, 7g sugars, 6g dietary fiber and 13g protein.
* Vanilla Cashewmilk Yogurt Alternative: When I peeled the lid back, I was surprised to see such a dark greyish brown looking yogurt. It looked like coffee yogurt, probably because of the chicory root. It didn’t look attractive. The texture was thick and creamy (they use thickeners). The flavor was very strange. I could taste the nuttiness of the cashews but it was super sweet in that weird fake sugar way. It was super sweet but had a sour aftertaste. So weird. It tasted like sweet and sour chalky protein powder. I should have read the ingredients because stevia and monkfruit usually taste horrible. I do like some vegan yogurt, like Kite Hill.
Luckily, Mr. Froyo was interested in eating the yogurt because it has protein and low sugar. He didn't like the taste though.
Ingredients: Cashewmilk (filtered water, cashews), pea protein, chicory root extract, coconut sugar, natural flavors, fruit pectin, guar gum, vanilla beans, stevia leaf extract, monk fruit extract, live and active cultures.
Available flavors: Vanilla, Strawberry, Raspberry, Blueberry

Fro-yo girl here. I’ve tried Juice Served Here before. Their “never conventional” cold-pressed juices and beverages are more creative than the other juice places. I like how they blend nut milk with green juice to create Green Milk. They also use unusual ingredients like lucuma, maca, charcoal, clay, rose oil, colloidal gold and pearl powder.
Recently I walked by and saw a poster for Coco Yogurt in the window. Juice Served Here collaborated with The Springs of DTLA to introduce new plant based foods menu that includes overnight oats, chia pudding, salads, sandwiches and bowls. Most items are vegan, mostly organic and and sometimes gluten free. They even have new cleanses that include food and juice.
The Coco Yogurt was kept in a fridge by the door, along with their other packaged grab and go foods. It was $7 something.
* Coco Yogurt: This is a dairy-free, vegan yogurt with probiotics made with young Thai coconut meat, fresh coconut milk, vegan probiotics, blueberries, maple syrup, agave, rolled oats, 7 spice, grapeseed oil, ginger and freeze dried pineapple. The 7 spice granola is in a separate compartment perched on top. The coco yogurt is covered in a blueberry puree. I really liked the granola. The intriguing 7 spice blend reminded me of Chinese five spice. The oats were in big clusters, soft but crunchy in different areas. The blueberry puree wasn’t too sweet. The yogurt was quite creamy, though not as rich or thick as Greek yogurt. It also wasn’t tangy. The coconut flavor wasn’t overpowering or too strong. I’d call it mild. A cup of yogurt is filling and satisfying. I recommend keeping the granola on top rather than mixing it into the yogurt.
I’m hoping to go to The Springs soon to try more of their healthy, plant-based food.
