THE ARITHMETIC
Six cartons.
One number that matters.
$27.99 is the pack price, and nobody drinks a pack. $4.67 is the carton price, and the carton is the thing: 330mL, 25g of complete dairy protein, 125mg of caffeine pulled from the bean.

A protein latte at the coffee shop runs about $6 to $7. This is $4.67, and it is already cold. The counter drink is made to order and carries more caffeine. It also runs about $0.21 to $0.26 a gram of protein against $0.187 here, and it costs you the queue.
Two honest notes. LOKT MIX is cheaper a gram: $0.108 at one bag against $0.187 here. The bag asks for a scoop, a liquid and half a minute at the counter. This asks for nothing but the fridge. That gap is what you are paying for, and it is the whole argument for the carton.
And a shelf-stable protein shake from a warehouse club undercuts both of us a gram. It also carries no coffee. If cost a gram is the only thing you are solving for, buy that instead.
Per-carton figures divide the pack price by six. Per-gram figures divide the per-carton price by the 25g of protein in a carton. Rival ranges are typical published prices for a category, not a point figure for any one brand. Nutrition values are product targets until production labels publish.

What does it taste like?
What does it taste like?
Original Latte leads with cocoa and caramel; roasted almond adds depth and the finish stays smooth, clean, and lightly sweet. Coffee stays in front. It isn't a milkshake with an espresso rumor.
How much caffeine?
How much caffeine?
125mg of coffee caffeine per carton, in the range of a strong cup. Count it toward your daily total across all sources.
Does it need refrigerating?
Does it need refrigerating?
It ships shelf-stable in an aseptic carton. It's best served cold, so we'd stock the fridge, and refrigerate after opening.
Does one pack ship free?
Does one pack ship free?
Not quite, and we would rather say so here than let you find it at checkout. Free US shipping starts at $30 and one pack is $27.99, so a single pack ships at the $4.95 flat rate. Twelve cartons at $44.99 clears the threshold. Alaska and Hawaii are $19.95, with no free tier.
READY or MIX?
READY or MIX?
Cost against effort. MIX is $0.108 a gram of protein and asks for a scoop, a liquid and half a minute at the counter. READY is $0.187 a gram and asks for nothing but the fridge. READY also carries a little more of both: 25g protein and 125mg caffeine against 20g and 100mg a serving.
If the coffee happens at your own counter, buy the bag. If it happens on the way out of the door, buy the carton. The compare page puts all three formats in one table.
