Active individuals who are looking for a simple way to refuel and replenish on the go have their pick of many protein-packed beverages, and [REBBL](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/functional-beverages1) Protein Shakes set themselves apart as first-of-their-kind upcycled protein shakes. These protein shakes are available in flavorful varieties like Milk Chocolate, Vanilla and Cookies & Creme, all of which feature silky smooth coconut milk.

These upcycled protein beverages make the most of a proprietary protein blend made with certified upcycled non-GMO barley with 26 grams of protein and just four grams of sugar. As the [plant-powered beverage](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/elmhurst-clean-protein) brand says, "By using upcycled ingredients, REBBL's innovative protein blend helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions produced by food waste and creates a lower carbon footprint than other proteins available in the market at this scale."
