Bega’s Dare Iced Coffee has introduced a new dairy free range made with Rainforest Alliance certified Robusta and Arabica coffee and oat milk, available in Double Espresso and Mocha flavours.

Bega Group marketing manager iced coffee Adelle Cosgrove said almost one in five Australians now considered themselves flexitarian, and consumers were increasingly looking to reduce their dairy intake while still enjoying their much-loved milk beverages.

“Dare Dairy Free is a great-tasting option for those seeking a dairy free fix without sacrificing the enjoyment of a classic Dare Iced Coffee experience.

“This launch is not a farewell to dairy, but rather a hello to great options in Dare’s legendary line-up. We welcome all Aussies who are seeking a dairy-free iced coffee to pick up Dare Dairy Free next time they’re on the go,” said Cosgrove.

Dare Dairy Free is available at independents and convenience stores, and is soon to be on shelves at Coles and Woolworths stores nationally.
