Awful Protein Drink

This is the worst tasting protein drink ever. I would compare the taste to drinking liquid soap. Premier Protein used to sell a clear fruit punch drink that I loved but this tastes nothing like it. Would NEVER purchase this or any other flavor in this brand.

Nice Change

I think these are great. I get so tired of milk like protein drinks so this is a nice change. People seem to complain about the texture it is a thinker than water. This drink Is best over ice and added water from the ice thins it if your worried about the texture.

A delicious, refreshing, clear drink

Let's be sure that you understand that we are supposed to be reviewing “Genius Gourmet Sparkling Protein-Fruit Punch (Natural Flavors) Zero Sugar” that has 30 g of protein and bovine collagen peptides. Even though it's sugar free there is Sucralose in it. At first I didn't like it, too tart. But I tried it the second time and I liked it and by my 10th can it had already become my favorite drink. It's bubbling, refreshing and delicious. That last swallow is a bit tart but I don't find it to have any lingering aftertaste. It's definitely not milky, thick nor chunky. I believe that there is another product review of a milky protein drink that is included for some reason in these reviews. Genius Gourmet Sparkling Protein-Fruit Punch is clear, thin, bubbly, and fruity drink. And, the price is comparable to the milk protein drinks that can be purchased at Sam's. The only difference I can see is some of the other protein drinks may have 15 in the case instead of 12. It's still worth it to me. I don't need the vitamins as I take OTC supplements. We are on our 9th case and plan on purchasing many more as long as Sam's continues to sell them. I tried to add photos but the system wouldn't let me?? This is my own review and no one is paying me or otherwise reimbursing me for my review.

Best Protein Drink

I was skeptic at first, I didnt want to the drink to taste like flavored club soda. However first sip had me at HELLO! In a good way. It looks and taste like a fizzy lemonade but of course Fruit Punch flavor...definitely sweet. Im sure it can be diluted with water and alot of ice. Great taste, surprisingly shocked that it doesnt have a protein after taste. I forgot it had protein in it. This drink is that good. So glad here is alternative protien drink that doesnt involve milk. Dont walk, go run and purchase this amazing drink. I definitely will be buying more. I would like a variety of different flavors. ❤️

Bad batches

Genius Gormet should be aware that their cans become thick and rancid. I tried multiple one of cans of the fruit punch and I love them. They truly are delish , but when I bought two cases of this - both of the cases cans had thickened and foamed over when pouring into a glass. Super bummed, cause they are great and decent ingredients. Make sure you check them tos ave yourself the headache of returning.

Finishing the case but won’t purchase again 😝

Bought this in hopes to add some protein to my day. The flavor is amazing with a rich, fruit punch taste however it’s sickening sweet for being “sugar-free”. I was hoping it would be sweetened a bit but also was thrown by the thickness of it for it looking like water. Will finish the case I bought but will not purchase again.

Looked unique... tastes even better!

Saw this at my local club and picked up a case. Perimenopausal woman trying to hit her protein goals and sometimes I just can't look at another egg, chicken breast or cottage cheese bowl. I lightly tilt my can upside down and back up, give it a few seconds and pop the top. Not quite 'mixing it up' but at least giving it a fighting chance of not settling on the bottom. I've only drunk it straight from the can so I can't speak to the look, but the taste feels like a treat and iced cold it goes down so easy.

Amazing

These taste exactly like the old school 90s Blue Thunder workout drinks, which was my jam for years. I love the taste and so happy I found these. 30g of protein, 130 total calories, and less than 1g of carbs is almost too good to be true. Please keep stocking these.

Not my favorite

I'll finish the pack just to not waste them but it's not something I will look forward to. They are extremely sweet and have a weird after taste. The consistency is odd as well. It's like thickened sparkling water which is off putting for me. I'll still to premieres or clean Simple eats with fair life skim

No Thank You

The smell and flavor are off-putting, sickly sweet like an energy drink. Doesn’t taste like fruit punch and leaves a weird soapy aftertaste. The texture is thick, which is very weird when combined with the carbonation. I was hoping for an alternative to shakes, but these are a no for me. They’ll be returned for a refund.
