From CLICK founder Greg Smith:
The innovative idea of combining espresso coffee and protein into a gourmet tasting healthy energy drink that can be enjoyed hot or cold just CLICKed one day...
The idea behind CLICK Espresso Protein Drink was to create a protein drink with the decadent coffee house taste and energy consumers crave along with the nutritional support they need that can be easily mixed with water, milk or their favorite beverage, all in a single 12-14 oz. serving.
What I was most worried about was the flavor--I CAN'T STAND that chalky taste so many powders have! After my first sip, though I was totally hooked. It tasted like iced coffee! Amazing! The texture of the shake is thin like iced coffee too, so it drinks like a regular cold coffee beverage. The taste was awesome. I LOVED the vanilla latte flavor--it was the perfect level of sweetness and coffee. The mocha flavor was great too, but a TOUCH too chocolatey-sweet for my tastes. I now just mix a little less powder and a little more water for the mocha flavor, and it tastes great.

I have been loving drinking CLICK after morning workouts. With the equivalent of 2 shots of espresso, not to mention 15g of protein in a shake, it is the perfect breakfast addition. I made the mistake of drinking it after a night run a couple of weeks ago, and I couldn't fall asleep after, so I can vouch that it's definitely caffeinated (There is a decaff option as well if that's your thing...) I'm pretty pumped to have finally found a protein powder that I can just shake up with water and enjoy. I still love my fruit smoothies, but it's so easy to scoop some CLICK into the shaker and toss it in my gym bag for a before school workout. There is also a recipe page on the CLICK website with different ideas for "shaking up" (hehe get it?? ;) regular CLICK. A few days ago I made the Pumpkin Spice recipe for an afternoon snack that will actually fill me up. Yum.

ReplyDeleteI'm a follower (have been for a long time) and I would love to try Click. I'm switching my workouts to early am for the same reason as you - long day of work followed by grad school and homework make me less likely to hit the gym or treadmill after work. If I go first thing in the am, it's really important that I have some protein right afterwards.
ReplyDeleteJust ordered the single packet with the promo code. Looking forward to the Mocha. I can use a little sugar after a hard workout at 5am.
