Koia Plant Protein Drink, Horchata Cinnamon
What You Should Know
Koia Plant Protein Drink, Horchata Cinnamon, arrives in a 12 fl oz single-serve chilled beverage format you’ll find in the refrigerated aisle with other plant-based milks, ready-to-drink protein shakes, and cold coffee drinks. It often sits near almond and oat milks, refrigerated protein drinks, and refrigerated functional beverages rather than in the shelf-stable juice aisle. Shoppers grab it for quick breakfasts, on-the-go snacks, or as a portable post-workout sip — it works equally well for a busy commute, a weekend brunch that needs a grab-and-go element, or a travel cooler on a road trip. The brand positions itself as a modern wellness-first alternative: clean-label visuals, minimalist design, and lifestyle-focused messaging aimed at millennials and Gen Z who want plant-based protein without dairy, appealing to flexitarians, busy professionals, and active consumers. The bottle highlights plant protein, prebiotic fiber, and reduced sugar, leaning on health-halo language like “plant-based” and “prebiotic,” and calls out organic cane sugar as an ingredient while also featuring “natural flavors” and monk fruit — cues that make it feel healthier even though it’s a formulated beverage. Processing context: this is a ready-to-drink, multi-ingredient product with emulsifiers and gelling agents, so it’s more processed than plain nut milk. Sensory notes: expect a creamy, slightly thick mouthfeel from gums and lecithin, warm cinnamon spice and sweet vanilla-like horchata flavor, light sweetness, and a cool, refreshing finish. Rituals include grabbing it from the fridge for morning routine or sipping after a workout as a convenient, flavored protein option.
