What You Should Know

You'd spot this in the refrigerated grab-and-go case next to bottled cold coffees and protein drinks — a ready-to-drink French vanilla protein coffee for mornings or an afternoon pick-me-up. It feels like a health-forward indulgence: low-calorie, protein-fortified and sweetened with monk fruit and stevia while delivering a smooth, creamy texture. The ingredient list — ultrafiltered milk, gums, pectin, natural flavors and non-nutritive sweeteners — signals industrial formulation and stabilizers typical of ultra-processed beverages.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:4 / 4

Ultra-Processed

Why this score?

Contains ultrafiltered milk and multiple industrial additives (cellulose gums, pectin, tripotassium citrate), plus natural flavors and non-nutritive sweeteners; these are hallmarks of an industrially formulated ultra-processed product. The presence of fractionated dairy, stabilizers and flavor modulators indicates extensive processing beyond basic culinary methods.
