Wow, SO GOOD
I've tried many protein shakes over the years and have always been a little disappointed in them and sometimes downright grossed out. They are expensive and it sucks to have to dump them down the drain if you don't like them or to suck it up buttercup and just drink the grossness. So going in, I was already skeptical about Pirq, especially after reading maca in the ingredients. I don't have any positive past experience with maca; in fact the only experience I had with it prior to trying Pirq was a gritty bag of it I bought at Trader Joe's. Unpleasant to say the least. So when I twisted the cap off the first container and saw that familiar maca-tinged color, I thought to myself, "Oh boy, this cannot be going anywhere good." I took a sip straight from the carton and was pleasantly surprised at how DELICIOUS it was. I chose the Caramel Coffee and was immediately hooked. The flavor was smooth, not gritty, it wasn't overly sweet to me, the caramel coffee was subtle but you could tell what it was, and the drink was THICK. As usual, I poured the contents into some iced espresso and made a coffee-house-type beverage and I loved every sip of it. I also purchased the Golden Vanilla and the Decadent Chocolate and they are also amazing. If you're on the fence about Pirq, give their sample 3-pack a try. I'm sure you'll love them, too.
