Turtle Mountain has once again produced an innovative product with Coconut Milk Yogurt. This yogurt is soy, dairy and gluten free, contains beneficial bacteria cultures and is fortified with calcium, magnesium and vitamin B12. It is available in 9 flavors.
Passionate Mango a blend of more passion fruit then mango, this flavor is not for those who prefer mild flavors. There is a definite tang yet no discernable coconut flavor.
Vanilla is no longer boring! With this smooth and creamy texture and nary a hint of coconut, this flavor is a clear winner.
Plain is a masterpiece. It tastes exactly like the "regular" dairy-filled plain yogurt - tart, slightly sour, tangy and creamy at the same time. This is a perfect substitute in any recipe calling for yogurt.
Raspberry This flavor has a definite berry and yogurt tang, but there is another layer there that does not exactly taste of raspberries, nor does it taste like coconut. Possibly the melding of the two created a whole different flavor? With that said, the flavor is not horrible, it's actually tasty, but it is not anything easily recognizable to my palette.
Chocolate This flavor is also rather puzzling. There is a definite tang of yogurt, but overly so. The flavor faintly resembles chocolate, though is not what I would call chocolately.
Strawberry Banana is surprisingly bland. It barely tastes of bananas or coconut. It did have a more prominent strawberry flavor, but still nothing really stands out.
Strawberry tastes pretty strongly of strawberry and even has bits of strawberry throughout. There is only a slight hint of coconut.
Blueberry This definitely tastes like blueberries, but the velvety coconut flavor took the tarty edge off of them. There is a slight coconut aftertaste, but nothing too strong. This is one of my favorite flavors.
Piña Colada My other favorite flavor, this has little bits of pineapple floating in creamy coconuty base. It resembles a piña colada, but is not as strong.

I can't eat dairy or soy, and I really like these yogurts. My favorite flavors are the chocolate and vanilla. Piña colada is pretty yummy, too!
