How can milk have an extended expiration date of up to two months?
Shamrock Farms now uses a new process called ultra-pasteurization – or extended shelf life (ESL) – to produce our single-serve milks and Half & Half (32 oz. size and smaller). This simply means the milk is heated to 285 F for four seconds, as opposed to traditional pasteurization, where the milk is heated to at least 170 F for a minimum of 20 seconds. As a result of this new process and our airtight safety seal, our milk stays fresh on the shelves for twice as long. And it has allowed us to introduce Shamrock Farms milk in such exciting new places as vending machines, restaurants, theatres, baseball parks and more. Remember, as with all of our farm-fresh dairy products, once you remove the freshness seal, we recommend you enjoy our milk within seven days.
