What You Should Know

You'd spot this in the refrigerated grab-and-go drinks section or on the chilled wellness shelf, grabbed during a rushed morning, after the gym, or as a portable latte treat. It projects a modern, health-forward vibe — protein-packed and slightly indulgent — promising convenience and a creamy matcha experience. The long ingredient list with protein isolates, emulsifiers, gums and 'natural flavors' signals industrial formulation for smooth texture and stability, typical of ultra-processed ready-to-drink products.

Ultra-Processed

Why this score?

The product uses reconstituted protein isolates/blends, prebiotic fiber isolates, emulsifiers (sunflower lecithin), hydrocolloids (locust bean gum, gellan gum), and 'natural flavors', which are characteristic of industrial formulations and thus classify it as NOVA 4 (ultra-processed).
