Pumpkin Spice Milk Tea Whey Protein

Things are different now. I cannot and will not go back to a time before trying this protein shake. You absolutely forget that this is health food and it is just the most enjoyable treat. I like to make one and add boba and have it after jujitsu class on my way home after getting stomped and questioning all my life choices - all except one. Cannot wait to try the chai and the Thai tea as well. Thank you for what you have done for me.

My husband and I both agree this is among our favorites (along with chai tea, mung bean, and also strawberry for me)! Spices are well- balanced resulting in a delicious drink mixed with unsweetened almond milk or oatmilk, water, and ice.

Boba Tea Protein is my favorite protein powder company so I was very much excited to try the seasonal pumpkin spice flavor. Sadly, although it tastes delicious, this is the first flavor from this brand that had an off putting gritty texture. No matter much I kept mixing it up in my shaker bottle, separation kept occurring and I could feel the gritty texture with every sip. It was for this reason that I could not rate it 5 stars. I have not tried ALL the flavors, but I CAN say that Vietnamese coffee and Original Milk Tea are my top 2 favorites; they are both delicious and silky smooth with zero gritty texture.

This protein shake is delicious and creamy! The spices and pumpkin flavor are at a perfect ratio, neither flavor overpowering the other. The only gripe i have is that this powder doesn't incorporate as well in 2% milk, leaving clumps of incorporated powder, but this can easily be remedied by shaking the drink in a shaker cup with an agitator before transferring to the boba cup.

I want to preface this by saying that I genuinely wanted to like it. I'm a total pumpkin spice fan and I immediately placed an order within 24hours of it becoming available while I was on the train to work

I finally got it and I made my typical Boba Tea Protein mix after working out, which is just a scoop with like 300ml of milk because I like how creamy it makes it. I took a huge sip and it was like an... "oh."

For starters, the spice part is there. I cannot deny that. The cinnamon, ginger, it's all there. However my issue was with the starch taste in it. There was this flavor note that reminded me of raw flour, which might actually be the pumpkin powder. I slowly finished the rest to make sure I wasn't just imagining it and the raw flour taste was still there, but a little less so, though I was probably just getting used to it. One key thing to note is that to me, the same raw starch taste doesn't exist in the other products with starchy ingredients like the taro one

Overall, unless the ingredients are tinkered with a bit to get rid of the raw flour taste that I'm picking up, I really wouldn't get it again. But I think other pumpkin spice girlies may like it and may not be as sensitive to that taste as I was.

Pumpkin Spice Latte was the first of the new mix-with-water-only flavors I tried, and I couldn't believe how cool, creamy, and refreshing it was even without added almond milk, my usual 50/50 mix in with water for the earlier flavors. The PSL flavor is spot on, and definitely on the sweet side. If you like your drinks a little less sweet or have some headache sensitivity to the the spices in PSL like I do, I recommend doing about half a scoop of PSL and half a scoop of the Jasmine milk tea powder to get a milder version of this shake. This is a great base flavor for making a PSL Ninja Creami ice cream, too!
