Why I tried it

I picked up the OATH Frosted Lemonade Clear Protein after a woman at Target recommended it to me and told me it was her favorite clear protein powder.

Right now, I’m basically testing my way through different clear proteins to figure out which flavors I actually like before I jump the gun and commit to buying a full bag. I’ve learned that clear protein can be very hit or miss for me, especially when it comes to the sweetener and aftertaste, so I was curious to see where this one would land.

What I loved

First: the flavor is REALLY good.

It tastes like a Chick-fil-A Frosted Lemonade. Actually, no. It tastes EXACTLY like a Chick-fil-A Frosted Lemonade.

It has that creamy lemonade flavor without actually feeling heavy, which makes it really refreshing. I could especially see myself reaching for this during the summer when I’m craving lemonade but also want to get some extra protein in.

There is a slight sweetener taste at the end, but it’s very mild and, most importantly for me, it does not taste like stevia. I absolutely hate that distinct stevia aftertaste, so this was a major win.

What I didn’t love

The mixability could definitely be better. I ended up with some chunks floating at the top, and it took more effort than I expected to get the powder completely mixed into my water.

To be fair, I used my backup 32-ounce tumbler instead of my usual 40-ounce tumbler, so having less water may have contributed to the problem. Still, compared with other clear proteins I’ve tried, this one was noticeably more difficult to dissolve. This was really a problem when I drank from the top of my tumbler, when I drink through the straw, I didn’t really notice a big difference.

Who I think it’s for

Anyone looking for a genuinely tasty way to get more protein in, especially if you’re tired of traditional creamy protein shakes. If you like lemonade, fruity drinks, or Chick-fil-A Frosted Lemonades specifically, I think this flavor is absolutely worth trying.

The verdict

Rating: 4/5 ★★★★☆

Bottom line: This was a really great clear protein, and the flavor alone is enough to make me want to buy it again. It genuinely tastes like a Chick-fil-A Frosted Lemonade, and I’m already planning to experiment with using it to make my own high-protein copycat frozen lemonade. I also think this would be an especially good summer protein option when I want something cold and refreshing instead of a traditional protein shake.

The only thing keeping it from a five-star rating is the mixability. Those chunks at the top were annoying enough that I noticed them, but definitely not enough to keep me from drinking it again.

If you’ve tried any of the protein powders from OATH, let me know which ones I should try next!
