Fazer Aito Protein Oat Drink Strawberry & White Choco is a refreshing, wholly plant-powered beverage with no added sugar that provides a fresh, sweet and satisfying snack. While the pairing of strawberry and white chocolate makes the drink feel especially dessert-like, the 250ml beverage packs 17 grams of protein from a combination of oats, peas and fava beans. Against more established plant protein sources, fava beans hold their own, providing a pleasing flavor and a smooth texture that makes them a natural fit for clean, minimal-ingredient, protein-packed drinks like this new launch, which is now available in stores.
Alongside Fazer's vegan-friendly Aito Protein Oat Drink Strawberry & White Choco flavor, Choco and Salted Caramel are other varieties in the range.
