Suja Organic Launches Ready-To-Drink Protein Beverages

The Pioneer of Organic, Cold-Pressed Beverages Expands Into A New Category With Plant-Based Protein Shake Line

OCEANSIDE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Suja Organic, the leader in cold-pressed, organic beverages, announced today the launch of Suja Organic Protein Shakes, a new line of elevated ready-to-drink (RTD) protein. It offers 16g of plant-based pea, rice and hemp protein, and convenient, transparent nutrition from plants. Available in three varieties including Vanilla Cinnamon, Chocolate and Coffee Bean. The new product offering marks Suja Organic’s entry into the fast-growing RTD protein market.

Suja Organic’s purposeful protein blends combine powerhouse whole foods, functional ingredients, essential vitamins (Vitamins A, B, C, D and E), minerals (iron, calcium and potassium), and macro-nutrients for foundational nutrition. Each shake is 200 calories, blended with almond milk and coconut cream for rich smoothness, with 3-4 grams of Acacia fiber.

Additional flavor details include:

• Vanilla Cinnamon – The perfect balance of vanilla with a swirl of cinnamon and a smooth finish. Think of the milk you look forward to drinking at the end of a bowl of cereal.
• Chocolate – Cocoa and salt support a bold chocolatey flavor. A mix of memorable flavors like chocolate pudding and chocolate milk comes through with each sip.
• Coffee Bean – Subtle coffee flavor with underlying notes of creamy, smooth vanilla and cocoa in a plant-based offering.

Suja Organic was founded in 2012 with a mission to provide foundational nutrition. With the introduction of Suja Organic Protein Shakes, the company aims to further its purpose by providing customers with a healthy, convenient beverage as part of a well-balanced diet. The high-quality, plant-rich concentrated blends harness nutrition straight from nature with protein from real organic plants, vitamins, and nutrients that recharge, balance, and fuel the body. When life gets busy and you don’t have time to squeeze in a healthy snack, Suja Organic Protein Shakes are the perfect on-the-go option complete with the nutrients your body needs.

“To further establish Suja Organic as a wellness platform with offerings that meet essential daily nutrition, we’re thrilled to introduce our new protein shakes,” said Bryan Riblett, Chief Innovation Officer at Suja Organic. “Our customers already look to Suja Organic for their nutrition needs and these new protein blends have been meticulously crafted to include protein, vitamins, minerals and fiber for the perfect balance of function and nutrition.
