  • 3 of those grams come from organic, low-glycemic coconut sugar.

Why Coconut Sugar?

The reason we include a low amount of organic, low-glycemic coconut sugar in Kiki Milk is that we pack our product with very nutrient-dense superfoods, like organic sprouted pumpkin seeds and organic hemp seeds. Real food has real flavor, and to balance all of that omega-rich, high-fiber food, we add a touch of organic, low-glycemic coconut sugar to round out the taste. Organic coconut sugar is one of the best options when it comes to naturally sweetening your food because it is less refined and does not spike your blood sugar.
