Frequently Asked Questions

Vanilla Protein Drinks

How would you describe the taste of Vanilla Protein Drinks?

Velvety smooth vanilla. Real vanilla extract and fair trade coconut milk make it rich and creamy, and it's lightly sweet straight from the bottle. 18g of plant-based protein and 5g of sugar, always free from dairy, gluten, soy and stevia.

What ingredients create the Vanilla flavor?

ALOHA Vanilla Protein Drinks are made with real vanilla extract and fair trade coconut milk. The protein is a blend of pea protein and brown rice protein. Contains coconut.

What are the macros in Vanilla Protein Drinks?

Each drink has 18g of plant-based protein, 3g of fiber and 5g of sugar, at 170 calories. Sold as a 12-count pack. The protein is entirely plant-based, and there are no sugar alcohol sweeteners and no stevia.

Do Vanilla Protein Drinks contain sugar alcohol sweeteners or stevia?

Never. We are very deliberate about our food philosophy, and sugar alcohol sweeteners are not part of it: no erythritol, xylitol, maltitol or sorbitol, and no stevia, sucralose or aspartame either. Sweetness comes from organic cane sugar and a touch of monk fruit, which is a fruit extract rather than a sugar alcohol sweetener. The nutrition panel on this page has the exact sugar count for this flavor.

Are Vanilla Protein Drinks vegan, gluten free and USDA Organic?

Yes! Every ALOHA protein drink is Certified Vegan and USDA Organic, with no dairy or soy. On gluten we go further than the label: every batch is third party tested to under 5ppm, where Certified Gluten Free allows 20ppm. The drinks are also Non-GMO Project Verified and Fair Trade Certified, and ALOHA is a Certified B Corporation.

What allergens do Vanilla Protein Drinks contain?

ALOHA protein drinks contain coconut. The FDA reclassified coconut in January 2025 and no longer counts it as a tree nut, though we know some people still prefer to avoid it. There is no dairy, soy or gluten in the drinks. They are made in a facility that also processes egg, milk, tree nuts and soy, with no peanuts in the building, equipment cleaned and swabbed between runs, and every batch gluten tested.

Why do Vanilla Protein Drinks use a coconut milk base?

Coconut milk gives the drinks a creamy texture without any dairy, which keeps them fully plant based. It also carries flavor far better than water does, so the drinks taste rich without leaning on sugar alcohol sweeteners or stevia to get there.
