  • Big fan!

    I love Pirq and have already purchased it again! It is very filling and flavorful, on top of having great macros! You’d have no idea it’s vegan either. Definitely recommend!

  • Flavorful and healthful plant based protein shakes

    I loved these. I would swap and start buying these if they can start selling at Costco at a competitive price. Love that there is turmeric in it. It's like "haldi wale dudh" but doesn't taste nasty, instead tastes very yummy. Highly recommend it.

  • Tasty shake!

    The drink itself is smooth and creamy, a nice consistency. Just be sure to shake it before you drink it. The serving size is good too. It’s very drinkable without feeling overly full. I drink it on its own, and I also put it in coffee for a little extra protein. I’ve tried all four of flavors now, and I’ve liked all of them! My favorite one was the caramel coffee, followed by vanilla, and then the strawberry and chocolate. Of course, that’s a matter of personal preference

  • Yum

    Pirq is a great after workout drink. Nice that it's dairy free and is tasty and refreshing, almost like a flavored milkshake but more like milk.

  • wonderful drink mix

    Pirq Hydration Electrolyte Drink Mix is a solid choice for anyone looking for a clean, effective hydration solution. The convenient packaging, natural taste, and balanced electrolyte profile make it a popular option for fitness enthusiasts and those seeking better hydration throughout the day.

  • I am super picky when it comes to protein drinks and I have one every day to maintain muscle mass on my weight loss journey. PIRQ Caramel Coffee didn’t disappoint. The shake is rich and flavorful, but is just slightly sweet because it has NO sugar. It’s dairy/soy free, gluten free, vegan and kosher! Its nutrient rich and has 15 grams of protein for just 130 calories, perfect for a healthy snack with a little boost of energy. The price was reasonable so I went back and got several more packs. I found them at Sprouts in the new products section.

  • I think the pirq protein drinks taste good! I like that it has 15 g of protein and is made from pea and rice. It has good ingredients like almonds, curcumin and maca!! Overall a good pick me up!

  • The Pirq Watermelon hydration has such great flavor and really quenches the thirst. I appreciate the that it is a clean product that helps me replace my electrolytes lost in this Houston heat. I would definitely recommend this product.

  • Overall, for a hydration drink, this is a nice product. I thought the packet mixed very easily with water. The watermelon flavor tasted like watermelon, and I had no issue drinking it. I thought that the nutritionals were well-rounded. My biggest issue with the product was that I had trouble finding it. This product was in the pharmacy by the nutritional and weight loss section. I understand not wanting to put this product by the energy drinks or the drinks that have no nutritional value. However, I do not think it would be horrible to put it near the other hydration mixes like liquid IV or halo. The pharmacy was the last place I looked since the packaging didn't scream out to me that it was a medical product. I would consider purchasing this product again if I were in the market for a hydration drink. I think the price is on par with the other hydration drinks out there. I would recommend it to a family member.

  • Pros: The watermelon flavor does taste like watermelon with very little weird aftertaste, and I like that there’s added turmeric! Cons: These are very expensive for what they are and I don’t like the usage of stevia.

  • Not bad. I bought the coffee flavor, it's sweet, creamy and with a hint of coffee flavor. I enjoyed it with crushed ice, it does taste like a protein shake but not so bad like other brands. The color doesn't look appetizing but who cares, it's healthy but doesn't taste like healthy, do you know what I mean?

  • I had high hopes for this product because I love ready made shakes. They’re super convenient for my lifestyle. Unfortunately, I found the product left a thick cocoa flavored coating after drinking it. I didn’t find it pleasant so I won’t be purchasing again.

  • I really enjoyed the flavor initially. It tasted like a chocolate shake, no complaints. But as soon as the aftertaste hit I was turned off. It’s sweetened with stevia and that flavor lingers, not in a good way. It’s also chalky and left a strange feeling in my mouth, especially my teeth. I can’t compare this to other vegan protein shakes so maybe it’s good by comparison, but I didn’t love it.

  • ok, but taste like all the protein drinks. just powder like. caramel and chocolate was ok. a bit expensive. easy to open. but taste needs improvement.

  • We tried the chocolate flavor and quite enjoyed. Most mornings breakfast is a premade protein drink or smoothie and it was nice to try something other than our normal brand. Would consider adding to our regular grocery list if pricing comes out similar to what we currently buy.

  • These drinks are yummy! They are not chalky or powdery like other protein drinks I’ve had in the past. These are so convenient to have on hand in the refrigerator to grab for a quick breakfast on busy mornings, on the way to work/school drop-off, or just to have as a yummy treat at night. I also love that they’re premade shakes so you don’t have to do anything but unscrew the cap and drink up. YUM! As far as the flavors go, the Decadent Chocolate is AMAZINGLY AWESOME—it truly reminds me of drinking a YooHoo as a kiddo. I only wish they weren’t quite as expensive.
