💡What is it?
Grounded is a London based start-up founded by looking to shake up the protein shake market with their new ready to drink vegan protein shake (launched last month).
The shakes are made using coconut milk and 100% natural ingredients. Grounded claims it’s products don’t compromise on anything and that each carton contains 40% less sugar than most chocolate milk drinks.
Each carton features a blend of organic sunflower protein, pea protein, organic raw cane sugar, fair-trade organic cocoa powder and coconut cream. The mint choc flavour also has some added peppermint oil.
🌎 As a company, Grounded has a focus on sustainability with their packaging being 100% recyclable and made from (75%) FSC paperboard.
🔬Our Take
I tested out the milk chocolate flavour and have to say I was impressed. Not only did I love their branding 😍 (on the delivery box as well as the carton) but more importantly the taste and texture didn’t disappoint 🤤. If you read vegan protein shake and thought “gritty” or “earthy”, you’re not alone – I thought the same. Fortunately Grounded seem to have solved that problem. The shakes are smooth and feel fresh, creamy and healthy.
The only downside, and the only reason I won’t be buying them regularly, is that at around £3 per shake they’re a bit on the expensive side.
