Premier Protein Debuts its Line of 'Almond-milk Protein Shakes'

'Almond-milk Protein Shakes' mark Premier Protein’s thoughtful expansion into plant-based nutrition, blending the creaminess of real almond milk with purposeful ingredients. Each shake provides "20 grams of non-dairy protein, 160 calories or fewer, and just 5 grams of sugar—striking a balance between nutrition and indulgence."

Offered in three distinct flavors, 'Chocolate,' 'Vanilla,' and 'Coffee' (infused with the caffeine content of one cup of coffee) the line is crafted to satisfy evolving consumer tastes without compromise.

"Many flexitarians seek a non-dairy option that aligns with their nutritional goals and actually tastes enjoyable. This launch was designed to meet that demand," said Amy Larek, Senior Director of Marketing at Premier Protein. Available at national retailers within the U.S. including Target and Amazon, Premier Protein’s Almond-milk Protein Shakes represent a refined step forward in the brand’s approach to inclusive, great-tasting wellness products.
