Best grab n go protein shake!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently tried the Core Power Protein Shake in chocolate flavor, and I was impressed with its rich taste and smooth texture. The whopping 42g of protein per serving is a major plus for anyone looking to boost their protein intake. It's a convenient and tasty way to refuel after a workout. I even went out and bought more this morning because I was so impressed. Highly recommend!

PLEASE GOD sell these on your site soon

I loved the regular Core Power shakes when I found them a few months ago. 26g of protein for 170 calories!? As a short woman trying to lose weight and always in search of ways to get more protein that actually taste good, I was in heaven! (Boba Tea Protein is another great choice, which I mix with half regular Fairlife milk and half water!) But then! My lord, but then! I saw the ELITE versions of these drinks. 42g of protein. 230 calories!!??? I don't know what sort of forbidden magic they got working on behind the scenes at Fairlife, but I need them to keep it up, seriously. The only real problem with the Elite line of drinks specifically is that THEY AREN'T IN STOCK ANYWHERE! I am constantly scouring every retailer they say on the site that has it and everyone has the regular 26G version, but hardly any of the Elite. Of course, I'm part of the problem, because every time I see them in stock, I buy LITERALLY every single one I see because they're never around! It honestly makes me kind of bitter seeing all of these Influenster reviewers getting a 3 pack of all of the flavors. I would have bought all of those lol. Okay, about the actual drink itself though. To be honest, I'm not really a chocolate kind of person -- the taste can often be too rich for me. And for many similar protein drinks the chocolate is often the worst flavor for me. On top of trying to be TOO chocolately, whatever flavoring always tastes so chalky and DRY (looking at you Muscle Milk), which seems impossible for a beverage, but I can't think of any other way to describe it. The chocolate Core Power Elite, though? IT'S DELICIOUS. PERFECT. It's definitely chocolately, but not overwhelmingly so for me, the chocolate hater. It's also incredibly light while still being filling. It might as well be the regular Fairlife chocolate milk, with just a LITTLE less chocolate intensity and no regret over drinking half the container when you were only going to have a sip. When I first saw the Elites, I only got one chocolate, just because it's normally not my preferred flavor for this sort of thing. I wound up regretting it because of how much I LOVE the taste of this one (and also the stock issues T-T). If I was forced to choose at the risk of Elites being permanently out of stock in my area, I'd probably say it's my favorite of the three flavors! Anyway, if you're in search of a delicious source of protein, just buy these already. Actually don't buy them and get the regular one instead -- I need more of the Elites in stock for myself!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE sell these outright on your website soon, Fairlife! It's killing me that only the 26g is available right now to get from you directly!

Very tasty

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got a different flavor of strawberry banana but it was absolutely delicious. I do like that its low in sugar because I can drink nit on my restrictive diet. The labeling was bright, appealingly and informative. I do think nits a lit1tle pricey though.

So good!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my new favorite protein shake! It tastes similar to chocolate milk and is not chalky or clumpy like other proteins! Not bad amount of sugars either for the amount of protein. Overall I'll be buying these!

A great brand

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My family really enjoys the Fair Life brand! These drinks not only provide great nutrition but great taste as well. I was very happy when trying these drinks that they live up to the rest of the brand products.

This tastes so great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this protein shake, Im not going to lie I was a little hesitant about protein shakes from past experiences. It takes just like chocolate milk but like a dark chocolate milk. I probably couldn't tell that it was a protein shake if it wasn't in that bottle. Overall it was a great drink, it was smooth and tasteful.

Personal favorite!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Core Power Elite 42g Chocolate Protein Shake is an absolute game-changer for my busy lifestyle! As someone who struggles to fit in balanced meals on hectic workdays, this shake provides a quick, delicious, and protein-packed solution. The rich chocolate flavor is so satisfying, and it feels like a treat rather than just another protein drink. One of my favorite hacks is freezing it and using my Ninja Creami to make high-protein chocolate ice cream. I even mix in a little cocoa powder before freezing to amp up the chocolatey goodness. The texture and taste are amazing—like indulging in dessert without the guilt. Whether I'm sipping it on the go or enjoying it as a frozen treat, Core Power Elite helps me stay on track with my protein goals effortlessly. Highly recommend!

Great Taste better protein

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was so good I couldn't believe it, usually I feel like items similar to this gives more of a powdery taste. I received the products tried them alone & also used them in a milkshake which was the perfect idea!

Good flavor!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This flavor is much better than I was expecting. Quite literally tastes like hot cocoa! (Although I refrigerated it before hand lol) The only downside is it makes me realllly bloated. Might just be me personally, but that may deter me from purchasing in the future.
