Global Buttermilk Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025

Research Summary

Buttermilk is a tangy and slightly acidic dairy beverage that is traditionally produced as a byproduct of butter-making. It is made by fermenting milk with lactic acid bacteria, which leads to the formation of a thick and creamy liquid. Traditionally, buttermilk was obtained by churning butter from cream, with the residual liquid left behind being the buttermilk. However, modern buttermilk is typically made by adding bacterial cultures to pasteurized milk. Buttermilk has a tangy flavor and a slightly thicker consistency than regular milk. It is commonly used in baking, marinades, and dressings, where its acidity can react with leavening agents like baking soda to produce light and fluffy results. Buttermilk is also enjoyed as a refreshing beverage on its own or in smoothies. It is a good source of calcium, protein, and probiotics, making it a nutritious addition to one＇s diet.
