Koia Elite Plant Based Protein Shake, Vanilla, 32g Protein, 4g Sugar, 6g Prebiotic Fiber, Pre & Post Workout Nutritional Drink, No Seed Oils, Dairy-Free, Gluten-Free, Non-GMO, 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)

This is one of the most delicious protein drinks know to man. Koia has really nailed a combination of excellent flavour, superior nutritional profile, and quality ingredients. They use a minimal amount of real sugar (thank you) with monkfruit extract that creates a natural sweetness. Many other brands use no sugar and stevia which gives you an unpleasant aftertaste. Koia does this right, and I will be a loyal customer for life!

Good tasting, not grainy. High in protein and all good for you ingredients.

Great taste, not overly sweet, high in fiber.

Compared to Koia’s regular protein drinks, the Elite is not nearly as good in terms of flavor. I like that it has nearly twice the amount of protein—while keeping the nutritional content within healthy ranges. Unfortunately, for me , it reminds me of liquid GI medications. The chocolate Elite is better

These are hard for me to find in local stores. They can't keep stock up with me around and I've actually driven to multiple stores in one day to try to find them. I thought they had to be refrigerated (bc that's how they're sold at stores) but apparently that is just after opening. What I like about this product the most is that there is no iron in 32 gram vanilla option; most pea protein shakes have a lot of iron which adds up if I drink 2 to max 3 a day. Also it is delicious, smooth, creamy vanilla that isn't too sweet or too thick - they've perfected the flavor profile. The ingredients appeal to me too with my sensitive stomach, it allows me to get extra protein without artificial or Inflammatory ingredients, excess sugars, seed oils, milk products, etc. My only complaint is that it's expensive - but it's no more expensive than similar products on market.

I like the taste of this protein shake, and it has good nutritional value, even though it is plant-based. However, after prolonged use, it causes gas and abdominal bloating due to the probiotic fibers. Not recommended for those who suffer from IBS.

Oh, these I like. The vanilla is a solid hit, and I love the flavor. The fact it's all vegan and doesn't taste like sugar was added is just a bonus. My stomach is very angry in the morning, making eating difficult. This is what I have for breakfast, with my cup of breakfast tea, and it has me energetic for hours afterward thanks to all the protein. The fact it doesn't need to be refrigerated is a bonus because sometimes I need to pack one in my purse. That's extremely convenient. On top of this, the overall quality has it worth every dollar. Their other flavors, however, are terrible. Their idea of cocoa has a chaulky and copper taste to it, like blood. The shelf stable version of their drinks are thicker. Too thick to blend with fruit. I gave to shake the bottle to loose everything up. However, I have a small fridge and need to take one of these with me when I leave my home. Between being medically necessary vegan as well as having celiac disease and requiring everything be gluten-free, finding places I can get something to eat is...tricky. Taking one of these along is enough energy for me to get home and make a meal.

Delicious but difficult to remove protective seal.
