Boba Tea Protein Taro Milk | 25g Grass-Fed Whey Protein Isolate Powder | Gluten-Free & Soy-Free Bubble Tea Drink | Real Ingredients & Lactose-Free Protein Drink | 25 Servings

I absolutely LOVE boba. I want to say my #1 treat drink, but it’s so sugary and unhealthy I sadly started avoiding it. When I heard about this protein, I knew I just had to try it. I got taro flavor, and I love the clean ingredients (no sucralose or erythritol, no long BS of filler ingredients) and after trying it, I’m so happy to have found this. The taste was a little disturbing to me, but I know it’s the whey taste mixed with the taro powder. I gave my boyfriend a taste and he absolutely LOVES it. I gave some to my mom (who has a picky taste in food and doesn’t like the taste of protein powder) and she said it tastes amazing!! I think it’s just my taste buds that I taste the whey more, but that doesn’t mean I hate it. Yes it’s $50 for a bag, but if you drink a protein shake everyday, it’ll last for almost a month! I would definitely prefer to pay that price for high quality ingredients than a cheap protein powder that can mess up my brain, gut health, or overall health. I love that you only need 1 scoop for all 25g of protein! I love that I can enjoy boba again and I love that it helps reach my protein intake for the day! I’m buying another flavor, and I highly recommend for everybody to try!!

Hawaii girl who loves ube here… 😊 The backstory: I’ve been drinking protein for a few years now. Mostly just for nutrients honestly… I’m not a gym person, I don’t track macros, none of that. I just forget to eat sometimes (oops) and I know I’m not hitting enough protein during the day. So over the years I’ve basically been on a mission trying to find protein flavors that don’t taste like… protein. Or worse, like fake candy. I’m not into the usual chocolate, peanut butter, vanilla lineup. I’ve tried a bunch of the fruity clear ones (Isopure has been in my rotation for a while), plus some of the fun “dessert” ones like Dunkin’ inspired flavors and the Pebbles ones too. I just needed something that didn’t make me feel like I was drinking melted candy. The verdict: This one? This Boba Tea Protein in Taro Milk flavor has been my favorite so far. Is it the best ube/taro smoothie of your life? No. Does it taste exactly like boba from your favorite shop? Also no. Does it taste like taro milk though? YES. Very much yes. Will you like it? I honestly don’t know because taste is personal and people get very serious about their drinks 😂 For me, I don’t like overly sweet drinks. I actually don’t even get boba that often because it can be too sweet for me. This one is sweet, but not “cloying sweet,” if that makes sense. I mix it with about 18 oz of water (or soy milk if I’m feeling fancy) and ice, and it’s really good like that. It honestly reminds me of those little boxed Korean taro milk drinks. And that’s saying something. Bonus thought: The only protein I’ve had that beats this for me is their Viet coffee flavor. I’m not even exaggerating—I’ll pick that over my own coffee sometimes. And I say that as someone with a whole at-home barista setup 😅

Biggest issue: bag doesn’t reseal. It’s has some sort of reseal zipper that seems to be Velcro like, but it just doesn’t work. I even tried tapping all of the powder out of the zipper and still had no success. This is seriously annoying as it’s going to lead to spills and lost product. 2nd biggest issue: I think it’s too sweet, but it does taste like taro milk tea (at least the bag that I got), but if I was ordering my milk tea, this almost tastes like I asked for it with extra sweetener. All in all, it’s good and better than vanilla whey protein powder, but not sure if I’ll repurchase this flavor.

If you are expecting this to taste like the Taro milk tea from a boba shop, you will be extremely disappointed. The flavor profile is very heavily taro-starch forward. It tastes exactly like real, raw, earthy taro root starch. Nothing you mix into it will get rid of the starchy rooty aftertaste. I am giving it 3 stars because the product itself is high-quality, smooth, with no chalky chemical taste known to low-quaility protein powder. However, the flavor profile is an absolute miss.

The best!! I really like the taro milk protein powder... I will say it does taste a bit diluted so sometimes I would need to add two scoops and it's not that sweet which I actually love... But y'all this taste mad good if you make protein coffee in the morning trust !
