51 ways to drink Cravendale

How do you and the mini-milk drinkers in your home like to drink Cravendale? That’s the question we asked at our #MilkDrinkersMilk Twitter party, and you told us some great stories — from an ice-cold glass in the morning to a post-workout refresher to a warm nightcap before bed, it’s the tasty drink all day long. There were a few surprises (milk with chip butty? Ok then!) and loads of pictures (be sure to click through on the links).

The party was sponsored by Cravendale. Cravendale uses ceramic filters to remove more of the unwelcome bacteria that turn milk sour, so it’s fresher, purer and tastier for longer. Find out more at www.cravendale.co.uk.

Here’s someone else who appreciates the fresh taste of Cravendale… http://t.co/J4ikjNyuHp @lynthiad

Think no difference in milks? @Cravendale uses ceramic filters and white bottles protect from light = purer taste. #sp @BritMums
