Chocolate protein shakes ranked by flavor and texture
A review of eight popular chocolate-flavored protein shakes evaluated them based on creaminess, thickness, decadent chocolate flavor, and the presence of chalky textures or unpleasant aftertastes. The shakes were tested both chilled and at room temperature.
The OWYN Pro Elite Vegan 32g Dairy-Free Protein Shake ranked lowest in the testing. The reviewer noted that the combination of organic pumpkin seed protein, sunflower oil, pea protein, and Himalayan pink sea salt created a highly synthetic chocolate taste. Additionally, the scent of the pea protein was reported to overpower the chocolate aroma.
