DO NOT BUY..AWFULNESS

This is the worst tasting protein shake that I have ever had in my life. It has a before nasty taste. It has an after nasty taste. It's awful all the way around and it's sad because I can't even give it away. I'm not sure what makes it taste so awful but I remember factors this stuff. Whoever the owner is of this stuff should go back to the drawing board like yesterday. You should wait until they have this on free sample and just taste it by itself, not with a cookie, not with a protein bar because you want to get the full effect of how it taste all by itself. It's awful. Trust me don't be stuck with an abundance of nastiness.

Sample was good. Cold cans were not.

Not sure what is happening with this protein but it's stability is not great. Tried the sample and loved it. Light and tasted fine. Bought the case immediately. 2 out of 4 cans was a thick foam texture. Was difficult pouring out the can because of the thickness. Threw the rest away. Maybe it being cold cause the clumping? Regardless not a fleshed out product. Has potential.

Great taste but thick

I'm not a fan of milky protein shakes so I've tried every clear protein option. This has been the best so far. The flavor is great. There's no chemical aftertaste. It is a little sweeter than most, but I like it. The sparkling part makes it feel like a soda. I can easily drink the whole can. The only negative is that it is slightly thick. I will gladly buy these again.

I love these!! And I was shocked to see it didn't have 5 stars! If you don't like fruit punch flavor then you obviously won't like these. The flavor is so good, sweet! If course its a bit on the thick side because this is a protein drink! I get tired of all the "milk" shake flavors and this is a great alternative when you're trying to add protein to your diet!! Ladies...we need more protein as we age!! Here is a marvelous way to add it! Love love love!!!!!!

Gross

Gross. I even tried to mix it with another type of seltzer and it was near impossible to choke down. Also not sure why it needs to contain milk. Just gross.

Did Not Enjoy

I managed about 2 sips before pouring it out. I was curious what it looked like so I poured it into a glass. It is a translucent yellowy whitish color; super unappetizing.

If you like c- mon or okra water

First it’s super thick, so I decided maybe I’ll pour it in a glass with seltzer water. It poured out like c- mon terrible my son shouted he must have nutted for a month just to make that can. Terrible and it also taste like a reg plastic bottle with soap. Terrible

Didn't See That Coming

I'll be honest — I grabbed this thinking it would taste like every other “healthy” protein drink (you know… punishment in a bottle). I was wrong. This one actually tastes good, goes down smooth, and doesn't leave me questioning my life choices afterward. No sugar, no calories, and somehow still flavorful? That already earned some respect. The 30 grams of protein is clutch too — it kept me full without feeling heavy or bloated. I finished it and immediately checked the label again like, “Wait… how is this real?” I've already bought it again, so yeah, it's officially in the regular rotation.

ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING NO NO NO NO

This stuff is disgusting. It tastes how bleach smells. It's thick like yogurt so the sparkling bubbles don't really make sense in your mouth. If the flavor wasn't so awful, I could get past the thick texture. I've decided to drink it in the morning to wake me up since it's so gross. Will not ever be buying again.

Absolutely love! Replaced milk-based shakes for me

I don't know how anyone does not love these 😂 but to each their own, I guess, because I LOVE them! They have replaced my regular milk-type protein shakes, and I don't find them thick in consistency at all. They are best (like most carbonated drinks and protein shakes IMO) ice cold. We just ran out after buying 5 cases after our first in-store box. Definitely buying more to keep on hand!
