Monica Nyman with the St. Louis District Dairy Council talks about June, Dairy Month.
And, here’s a special recipe.
Celebrate June Dairy Month with a refreshing strawberry milk Italian soda. This fruity milk is a great way to get in a dairy serving. Try flavored sparkling water, such as strawberry or black cherry, to create your own custom flavor.
