The milk you drink is getting a makeover and you’ll either love it or hate it

We don't know whether to be excited or disgusted.

Imagine Coca-Cola and 7Up…but in milk form.

We’re honestly just as confused as you are.

Some people like the full-fat, others are all about that skimmed milk life and the majority play it safe and go for the low-fat just to keep the peace in the house.

Well, now there is the possibility of another type being added into the mix and it has the potential to be the best thing ever or the most disturbing drink you’ll ever gulp in a mad moment of thirst.

According to That’s Farming, “fizzy milk is set to be the latest product to hit the shelves, as dairy companies look to cope with new milk alternatives.”

It is one of many new dairy product ideas that are going into production in the hope of boosting the dairy market which has begun to decline in recent years.

Dairy Company, Arla, are the brains behind fizzy milk and it is set to hit UK shelves first and if it’s successful, you can be assured that the sparkling fruit and milk drink is going to come to Ireland.

Consumers are now buying almond, rice and soya milks instead and Arla feel that they need to change the milk game before it’s too late…

…but fizzy milk? Really? Surely, there’s an alternative.
