Fairlife Elite 42g High Protein Milk Shakes For kosher diet, Ready to Drink for Workout Recovery, Chocolate, 14 Fl Oz (Pack of 12), Liquid, Bottle

My husband bought these for a 300 mile, three day Make A Wish bike ride, and they ended up being a huge hit with the guys he was riding with. We bought three cases for the trip and everyone loved how convenient they were after long days of riding. That was what really sold us on them. The chocolate flavor is surprisingly good for a high protein shake. It tastes much more like chocolate milk than a typical protein drink, with a creamy, smooth consistency and very little of that artificial protein shake aftertaste. We definitely prefer these very cold. Each 14 oz bottle has 42 grams of protein, which is impressive for something you can simply grab from the refrigerator. They are also lactose free and have much less sugar than many drinks that taste this rich. My husband likes one after cycling, and I reach for one when I need something filling and convenient and want to get more protein into my day. The downside is the price. They are considerably more expensive than buying protein powder and mixing your own shake, so these would not be my choice if cost per serving were the priority. For us, the taste, high protein content and grab and go convenience make them worth paying more for. One of the few ready to drink protein shakes we have purchased again because it actually tastes good, not just “good for a protein shake.

I'm not a super meat head muscle workout guy, but I went from being very active about my nutrition and macros and then had an accident which left me disabled so my needs changed. This fits different needs, but is still really really exceptional. If you're a gym rat just looking for *only* plain old bulk protein to take after workouts, or you reeeeeeallly take a lot of it, honestly I'd get a big giant tub of bulk powder from like muscle milk or optimum nutrition. The price is just too good to ignore, & plus you can add another scoop or two to double or triple the protein. You can't really beat it, other than taste. Speaking of taste, whether it's a pre-mix or powders, I've never, ever ever ever tasted a protein shake that tasted as good as this chocolate one. Dozens & dozens of brands over the decades, & the only one that comes close was the OG Muscle Milk recipe in the old tetra packs from like 15-20 years ago, before they were bought by Gatorade or whoever. This has NO right tasting as good as it does, with as little sugar, calories, & fat. PLUS having artificial sweeteners like stevia & sucralose. One reason I despise pre-made shakes, zero calorie & low sugar drinks is because I have a very strong detection of artificial sweeteners, but I can barely tell these are there. On top of that, 42 grams of protein in 14floz? I don't know what magic Fairlife did, but it's incredible. One thing I will say though, is if you're taking a protein drink for pretty much anything other than supplemental protein replacement, this doesn't offer too much else. The "vitamins & minerals" aren't too impressive, and though a high protein drink can make you feel full or satiated, calories & fat are important too. As stereotyped it is, something like Ensure has a really good blend of calories, fat, sugar, and a lot of vitamins. There is a reason it's used all over hospitals & nursing homes. Plus the Ensure "Plus" & "Complete" have 16g & 30g protein each, respectively. They don't taste as good as the Fairlife does, but they're actually not too bad, since they use actual sugar. However, those really are meant for convalescing & true meal replacement, not bulking & training. The only other downside is price really, at $40-45 for a 12 pack, these aren't cheap. However, when compared to a good alternative like optimum gold at about $25 for a 12 pack, you're getting almost double the protein in each drink from 24 to 42, and they're 14oz instead of 11oz, so you're getting 168oz compared to 132oz, which is like getting 3 more drinks worth. It's still a bit costly per bottle, as an Optimum Nutrition/Pure Protein/Premier Protein 11oz pre-made at $25 a 12pk will be a little over $2 each, & the Fairlife 12pk @ $45 is about $3.75 each. Still cheaper than if you went to pick one up at the gym or a gas station or something, a single would probably be $5-7, so there's value there in bulk. If it's worth it to you, that's up to your wallet. Another plus is they are SNAP/EBT eligible, so that's a massive W. If you take loads & loads & loads of protein every single day, and lugging a shaker with powder around isn't a problem, bulk powder is gonna be a LOT cheaper. However, if you only drink one every couple days, and don't want to deal with the blender/shaker hassle, and most importantly want the best tasting shake, this is it. This stuff is awesome, & I'll 1000% be trying the vanilla and strawberry as well. The chocolate is an easy 5 and worth trying.

I really like the Fairlife Core Power Protein Shakes and have found them to be a great way to get extra protein in without having to eat a large meal. The quality is excellent—the shakes are smooth, creamy, and have a good flavor without that chalky protein-shake taste I’ve experienced with other brands. I drink these while taking tirzepatide because my appetite is much lower, so getting enough protein can be difficult. They’re convenient, filling, and an easy way to get protein in when I don’t feel like eating much. My 82-year-old father also drinks them because he doesn’t eat very much, and they give him an easy source of protein and nutrition without requiring a big meal. They’re easy to grab from the refrigerator, taste good, and actually keep me satisfied. I also appreciate that they’re ready to drink, so there’s no mixing or mess. These have definitely become a staple in our refrigerator, and I’ll continue buying them.

Love the product, provides adequate protein and doesn't taste "mediciney". However, am disappointed because I was sent the incorrect flavor. Ordered Chocolate elite, was sent Chocolate Milk. Flavors quite different. May or may not try Amazon here again because I like having it delivered to front door. If a mistake next time will go to Kroger there is only a few pennies difference.

I was drinking another brand before I found this one. While i wish it was a bit higher in protein than it already is the taste is exactly what I was looking for. The chocolate had the right amount of flavor without being overwhelming and with the level of protein that is there it does help keep my blood sugars from spiking. I feel better than I have in a long time in my battle with Diabetes. I had even tried the Glucerna shakes and didn't like them the flavors were just off. So far I have purchased three cases and will absolutely buy more.

The Context: I’ve tried a wide variety of protein supplements over the years, and many of them are a struggle to get down due to a thick, chalky texture or a chemical aftertaste. I picked up the Core Power Elite 42g shakes to use as a convenient meal replacement on busy days, and they have quickly become my go-to. The Performance: Flavor and Texture: The standout feature here is the taste. It genuinely tastes like high-quality chocolate milk rather than a supplement. It is remarkably smooth and lacks that dry, chalky finish that usually plagues high-protein drinks. Satiety: With 42g of protein in a single 14oz bottle, these are incredibly effective at keeping you full. When used as a meal replacement, I’ve found that they keep hunger at bay for significantly longer than lighter shakes or snacks. Convenience: The 12-pack is a great value, and the bottles are perfect for a grab-and-go lifestyle. They don't require any mixing or shaking to get rid of clumps, which makes them ideal for the car or the office. Nutritional Profile: For the amount of protein you're getting, the calorie count and sugar levels are well-balanced, making it easy to fit into a variety of nutritional plans without feeling like a "cheat" meal. Pros: Great Taste: No chalky texture or medicinal aftertaste. High Protein Content: 42g is a significant amount that helps with satiety. Solid Value: Purchasing the 12-pack is much more cost-effective than buying individual bottles. Cons: Thickness: Because it is milk-based, it is a bit richer than a water-based shake, which some might find heavy if they aren't used to it. The Verdict: If you want the benefits of a high-protein supplement but hate the typical "protein shake" experience, these are the answer. They are delicious, filling, and convenient. Whether you're using them for recovery or just as a quick meal replacement, they are one of the best-tasting options on the market.

I spent years looking for an effective, healthy way to supplement a high amount of protein. These have been a total game changer. Most protein drinks or shakes are either too sweet, too thick, too filling, or have too much of an artificial aftertaste. These are perfect- they’re thin, taste exactly like chocolate milk, and there isn’t a single hint of that artifical sweetener taste (that I can’t stand). They’re DELICIOUS! If they had 0g of protein I’d still be drinking them out of pure enjoyment. They pack a real punch protein-wise for how small they are and aren’t too high in calories or sugar. They’re expensive, but so worth it. I’ll never look for another protein drink again!

This is the best tasting protein shake I’ve found. It doesn’t taste as artificial as most I’ve tried and it has 42 grams of protein versus the 30 grams shake I used to drink. It’s not cheap, but considering the taste and protein content, I’m in!

Pedi 2 paquetes de 10 botellas y me llegaron además 4 botellas más. Quizá porque dijeron últimas piezas. Como sea se agradece mucho 🙏🏻
