Oh Oat is produced in small batches in Woodstock. They don’t just say they care about sustainability and animals, they prove they do by making a 100% vegan product, packaging it in glass, and being pioneers for the circular economy in South Africa. How? They charge a bottle deposit on all sales and encourages their customers to return their bottles for reuse. 

the ingredients and the packaging

Oh Oat Milk is made with oats (18%), water, calcium carbonate, salt, and sunflower oil. The milk must be kept refrigerated and consumed within a few days of opening. The milk is packaged in 750ml reused wine bottles that were heading to the recycling bin! The caps are made from recyclable aluminum, and the branding is printed on paper which is wrapped around the bottle and tied with a rubber band which you can reuse.

where to buy?

I bought some Oh Oat online on Granadilla Eats, but they have quite a few stockists, so have a look here.

Oatify is a barista-quality vegan oat milk made in a 100% vegan-only factory in Cape Town. This oat milk is so delicious and creamy that my fiancée changed from boxed long-life dairy milk to Oatify!!! He says he prefers the taste! 

by Soma.

Most factories that make vegan milk, also make products using animal ingredients. For vegans who avoid products made in factories with animal products, Soma. is a dream brand! They built their own facility from scratch, which allows them to run only plant-based products on their equipment. 

Soma. have quite a few sub-brands: Oatify, Cold Brew Coffee, Plant-Based Drinking Yoghurt, and a barista quality Activated Almond Milk. From the looks of it, there is more coming soon!

Oatify is the only locally produced Oat Milk in South Africa! So you can enjoy your Oatify while knowing that you are decreasing your carbon footprint!

Oatify Ingredients:

Oatify is free from artificial flavours, colours and preservatives, and is both gluten and sugar-free. It’s made with the following ingredients: RO Purified Water, Whole grain gluten-free rolled oats (13%), HO Sunflower seed oil, Chicory Root Extract, Electrolyte Blend (Potassium Phosphates, Pink Salt), Acacia fibre, Gellan Gum.

The packaging:

Most milks are packaged in Tetrapak, which is packaging that is part plastic, part paper, which many recycling centres can’t recycle. Oatify on the other hand is packaged in cartons made from plants, which are 100% recyclable!
