Almond Breeze
Hits the Road for
Homegrown Goodness Tour
Blue Diamond Almond Breeze
hit the road
earlier this year offering a chance for consumers
across the country to visit
Blue Diamond’s
beautiful almond orchard kitchen, cook with
food expert Patty Mastracco, and taste iconic
dishes inspired by their own hometown – made
with an
Almond Breeze
twist.
“We want to inspire consumers to think outside of the glass
when it comes to
Almond Breeze
,” said Suzanne Hagener,
senior marketing
manager for
beverages at
Blue
Diamond
. “
Almond
Breeze
fans know
and love our
almondmilk’s
delicious taste,
but beyond cereal
and smoothies
they can also keep
it in the pantry
and cook with it. From soups and savory favorites to baked
goods and desserts – we can’t wait to share its versatility
and show how great it tastes in locally-inspired cuisine.”
The tour kicked off at Miami’s highly anticipated South
Beach Wine and Food Festival with
Almond Breeze
featured
in two dishes inspired by regional flavors: Cubano, a
satisfying ham sandwich with pickles and mustard made
even more comforting with a luscious cheese sauce
prepared with
Original Unsweetened Almond Breeze
, and
Key Lime Pie, a sweet and tart favorite enhanced by the
slightly nutty flavor and creamy texture of
Hint of Honey
Vanilla Almond Breeze
in place of cream.
After Miami, the 2017 Homegrown Goodness Tour
visited Dallas and Los Angeles. The tour will also join
other marquee events in cities across the United States,
including San Francisco (Eat Drink SF, August 24-27) and
Sacramento (Farm-to-Fork Festival, September 23).
