Elmhurst

Our process is simpler and better from start to finish. First, a unique HydroReleaseTM method allows us to use more of the source grain, nut, or seed. This means superior nutrition and flavor with fewer ingredients. We then package our products in shelf-stable, recyclable cartons. Many have a variety of uses, ranging from cooking to coffee; soups to sauces.

This game-changing process was developed by famous food technologist Dr. Cheryl Mitchell. First we use just water to separate the nutritional components of the nut or grain. Keeping these intact maintains their integrity for you to enjoy, both nutritionally and flavorfully, in the finished product.

Next, wethey put the nutrients back together as a thick, creamy, full-flavored emulsion. No added gums or emulsifiers are needed to hold the product together, giving all Elmhurst products a clean label of no more than six - and as few as two - ingredients.

Elmhurst products are versatile, with a variety of uses beyond drinking and cereal. These may include everything from coffee to cooking; smoothies to soups. Our cashew milk, for instance, works to barista standards in coffee, and can also be used in baking and sauces.

HydroRelease is a zero waste process, meaning all parts of the grain, nut, or seed are used. Our cartons are certified by the Forest Stewardship Council and 100% recyclable in most US homes. Plant-based foods generally have a lower carbon footprint than their animal counterparts.

A lifelong dairyman and a renowned visionary in plant-based nutrition. Sound like a match? Not really. Maybe that's exactly why it works.

Henry Schwartz, owner of the last dairy in New York City, had a fortuitous meeting with Dr. Cheryl Mitchell, who had spent decades developing HydroRelease - a unique method for using water to separate and draw the nutrients from nuts, grains, and seeds to produce a naturally smooth, creamy beverage without any added emulsifiers or thickeners.

Inspired by Dr. Cheryl, Henry made the shocking move to close his 90-year-old dairy, start anew, and give its name - Elmhurst - to a new innovative line of plant milks.
