Byrne Dairy a New York-based dairy is bringing out a festive flavor of milk just in time for St. Patrick’s Day. Byrne Dairy in central N.Y., is continuing its 38-year tradition of rolling out mint-flavored, green-tinted milk. The mill’s popularity makes it hard for stores to keep them on the shelves.
Byrne Dairy will sell nearly 6,000 gallons of green milk during the brief seasonal period, and though popular, the dairy plans to keep it an annual traditional.
“Around December, we start to get emails from the stores asking when it’s going to be available,” said Joe Strong, manager of Byrne’s fresh milk plant on Oneida Street, where the company has been processing milk since 1946. “Their customers want to know.”
