Protein... in Sparkling Water? 🤔💪

Protein... in Sparkling Water? 🤔💪

Hey Everyone,

One of the fun things about wandering through Costco is finding something you never expected to see. Last week, that was Genius Gourmet Sparkling Protein Drink.

Sparkling water... with 30 grams of protein.

I'll admit, I was skeptical. I expected it to taste like a protein shake with bubbles. Surprisingly... it's actually really good.

We've talked before about how important protein is, and the research keeps backing it up. Getting enough protein can help:

  • 💪 Build and preserve muscle
  • 🍽️ Keep you feeling full longer
  • ⚖️ Support healthy weight management
  • 🦴 Maintain healthy bones as we age
  • 🔥 Boost metabolism slightly because protein takes more energy to digest

Most of us think of protein as chicken, eggs, shakes, or bars. It's nice to see companies coming up with new options that make hitting your daily protein goal a little easier.

So, if you're already making your weekly Costco run and you're looking for an easy grab-and-go protein option, this one might be worth trying. It's refreshing, convenient, and packs an impressive 30 grams of protein into a single can.


Costco is dangerous... you can go in for paper towels and somehow leave with a kayak, a 10-pound bag of trail mix, and sparkling protein water. At least one of those purchases was healthy. 😄

Have a great weekend!
