TESTING IT OUT
Our crew grabbed a few of the Vega protein shakes and a shaker for the review.
Real Food Smoothie
Real food in just a few shakes! Shake up a creamy wholesome smoothie on the go – no bulky blender required. Each scoop contains 20g of protein, real food ingredients like oats and spinach and can be enjoyed wherever your day takes you, however it takes you.
The real food smoothie is by far one of the best smoothie flavors we have ever tried and tasted. We love the flavor and the rich taste in wither water or milk. We simply tossed in the shaker, and after 5-8 good shakes the smoothie was ready to go. The creamy texture sort of tastes like a milkshake but the protein this drink packs is no joke. We felt fueled all day and did not have to worry about a sugar crash or other junk.
Protein & Greens
Green feels good. Add extra greens and protein to your daily routine without skipping a beat with Vega® Protein and Greens. Each scoop is stacked with kale, alfalfa, broccoli and spinach, plus 20g of plant-based protein.
Most protein powders are filled with artificial flavors, loaded with sugar, and are blended with multiple protein sources to save costs. Not here. We have been trying to find a better way to add greens into our diets and with the blend of spinach, kale, and alfalfa greens we have a power packed drink to go to. With over 25% of daily iron as well we can stop buying all those multi-vitamins were addicted to. With no added sugar we didn’t have to worry about extra ingredients impacting the flavor or the power of the healthy blend.
Vega Sport
Peak performance. Finish your workout strong with 30g of plant-based protein, 5g BCAAs, tart cherry and probiotics, to help you recover, rebuild and reset for round two.
We love a good workout but also want to focus on rebuilding muscle as well. With 30 grams of protein and 5g BCAA’s you can repair muscles faster and better than rest alone. We love the keto-friendly blend and the tart cherry ingredients for the ultimate post workout recovery. We scooped and mixed a little before bed and rested easy.
