Island Vintage Organic Granola 

I’ve been craving Island Vintage’s Acai Bowl for quite some time now, and guess what!? They’re now selling the same granola that is used in their Acai Bowl. 


This granola tastes so healthy and crunchy! I love the way the granola pieces mix with my favorite Chobani Greek yogurt. I would load it up with my morning fruits and a drizzle of honey, and dayum - it tastes SO FRIGGING GOOD. You can add virtually any topping to this granola because it creates such an ideal and balanced canvas for your palate. The flavor isn’t too overpowering or sugary, which is great as it doesn’t interfere with other ingredients. 


The only downside is the price - like all Island Vintage products, it does seem a tad expensive. I’ve tried to recreate the taste at home, but I couldn’t mimic the crunchy and nutty flavor. But Island Vintage makes up for the higher price by providing quality food, and that’s how much I love their granola. 


The full list of ingredients can be found on Island Vintage’s online shop. All organic and no questionable chemicals. 

I recommend this granola for those who’re looking for crunchy, plain granola that isn’t overly sweet. I recommend this in a heartbeat.

If you can get your hands on this granola, please try this! 

Aloha Sunrise Granola is an artisan granola baked in Hawai'i using local, organic, and natural ingredients. According to Aloha Sunrise, each ingredient is carefully selected based on its ability to complement one another. I like the Blueberry variety, but their granola comes in many different flavors, like Goji Berry, Strawberry and cacao, Mango, Toasted Coconut, or Toasted Coconut with Ali'i Kula Lavender.  

Their physical store is located at 94-750 Hikimoe Street, Suite H Waipahu, HI 96797 (behind Times Supermarket and near the bus depot). But you can order their granola online. They offer free shipping on orders over $60. 

It's so crunchy and fresh.

Made Good Crispy Light Granola Cocoa Crunch


This granola is a great option if you’re looking for gluten-free granola. I know, how can granola, with rolled oats as the main ingredient, be gluten-free? Made Good’s Crispy Light Granola is made with pure gluten-free oats and brown rice crisps, so even those who’re watching gluten intake can enjoy hearty and crispy granola. I bought this for my husband who’s sensitive to gluten, and he’s been loving this on his morning yogurt. 


It is made from a facility that does not handle the following ingredients: 

Peanuts, tree nuts, wheat/gluten, soy, dairy, egg, sesame, and fish/shellfish/ 

The texture is super fluffy and crunchy, and I love every bite of it.

Purely Elizabeth makes the BEST granola in the market. I’ve tried probably all the flavors from Purely Elizabeth, and the Blueberry Hemp is my favorite variety. It’s not overly sweet like other chocolatey granolas in the market. If you like blueberries, you’re going to love this granola. 


I eat it every morning with yogurt and need to resist the urge to finish the whole bag! 

The sweetness is perfect, and the bits of dried blueberries are so flavorful. I don’t need to add honey or other sweetener because the flavor is super rich. The dried blueberries have just the right chewiness to them, and they are simply amazing. 


They taste better than homemade granola, in my opinion. I’ve made several batches of homemade granola following Youtube tutorials, and it’s probably me, but they didn’t turn out so great. So, yeah, I’ll just go ahead and buy Purely Elizabeth on repeat. 


I buy Purely Elizabeth granola from Whole Foods, and with a Prime membership, it frequently goes on sale, making a bag a little less than $4 - score!
