THE LINEUP
THREE WAYS
TO COFFEE.
One standard, three formats: the pouch, the bag, the carton. The pouch carries caffeine. The carton and the powder add protein.
Every number, side by side, including the one that decides it: cost per gram of protein.

FOR PEOPLE WHO DON’T LIKE MINT
MOST POUCHES TASTELIKE TOOTHPASTE.
This one tastes like the last third of an espresso. Deep roast up front, dry cocoa through the middle, a light caramel edge that stops short of syrup.
No spearmint. No wintergreen. No cooling agent. No candy shell.
-
If mint isn’t your flavor
Mint runs most of this category: spearmint, wintergreen, cool. Dark Espresso has none of it. Not a mild mint. No mint.
-
If you drink coffee
50mg of caffeine a pouch, pulled from coffee rather than synthesized to imitate it. It reads as coffee because it starts as coffee.
-
If you’ve had a pouch before
Same slim format, same 20–40 minutes under the lip. 0mg nicotine. Won’t stain your teeth. No dip breath.
LOKT 50 Dark Espresso. 50mg coffee-derived caffeine and 0mg nicotine per pouch, 20 pouches a can. Contains caffeine. For adults 18+.

Per gram of protein divides that again by 20g for MIX and 25g for READY. The transparency page carries the full record: what is verified today, and what is not.

One scoop, or the whole counter.
Per prepared 12 fl oz serving, from one level 36g scoop. The row that settles it is cost per gram of protein.
See the full table Hide the table
| Factor | LOKT MIX | Coffee shop protein latte | Coffee plus a separate protein | Bottled protein coffee |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cost a coffee | $2.16At one bag. $1.98 at two, $1.80 at three. | About $6 to $7 | Often less, if you already own both | About $3.50 to $4.50 |
| Protein a coffee | 20g complete dairy protein | 27 to 29g | 20 to 30g, in a second drink | About 26g |
| Cost per gram of protein | $0.108At one bag. $0.099 at two, $0.090 at three. | About $0.21 to $0.26 | Varies with what you buy | About $0.13 to $0.17 |
| Is it real coffee | Freeze-dried arabicaThe 100mg comes from the bean, not from caffeine anhydrous. | Yes. Espresso. | Whatever is in your pot | Usually a flavored dairy drink |
| Hot as well as iced | Yes, with the slurry methodBuilt on milk protein rather than bare whey, because casein holds where whey will not. | Yes | Yes, if you can get the protein to behave | No |
| Prep | One container, one scoop, under a minute | A queue | Two products, two scoops, two things to run out of | Open it |
| What you throw away | A resealable bag, about 28 coffees in | A cup and a lid, every time | Two containers | A bottle, every time |
Two honest notes.
A shelf-stable protein shake from a warehouse club is cheaper than this and carries more protein. It also tastes like a protein shake. If price a gram is the only thing you are solving for, buy that.
And if you already own good beans and a tub of whey, doing it yourself is cheaper still. It is also the exact combination that clumps, which is why “how to add protein to coffee” is a question people keep having to ask.
Rival figures are published prices for comparable protein drinks at the time of writing; they vary by brand, size and channel and they move with the market, so they are ranges and no brand is named. LOKT MIX figures are ours and are exact. One 1kg bag divided by one level 36g scoop is 27.78 coffees, which we call about 28, and every price a coffee is the rung total divided by 27.78 a bag: $59.99 is $2.16, $109.99 is $1.98, $149.99 is $1.80. Cost per gram of protein follows from the same division at 20g a coffee. Correct as of August 2026.

STILL DECIDING
PICK BY THE MOMENT,
NOT THE TICKET.
The pouch, for the moments a cup cannot reach. 50mg of coffee-derived caffeine, 20 to a can, $8.99. It is also the cheapest way to find out whether the roast is for you.
The bag, for the coffee you already make at home. About 28 coffees at $2.16 each, hot or iced, 20g of protein in every one. It is the biggest ticket here and the smallest number per coffee, and the First Bag Guarantee carries the first one: if it is not for you, tell us within 30 days and it is on us.
The carton, for the mornings you skip breakfast. 25g of protein, cold from the fridge, nothing to make.
LOKT 50 contains caffeine (50mg a pouch). LOKT MIX contains 100mg per prepared serving and LOKT READY 125mg a carton. For adults 18+.
