How much protein is in one bottle?

Each 500 ml bottle has 50 g of protein from added milk proteins. That is roughly two to three times what most ready-to-drink shakes carry.

Does it contain added sugar?

No added sugar, and it is low in fat. It is sweetened with sweeteners, so it still tastes sweet.

When should I drink it?

Any time of day as part of a balanced diet. It is best served chilled; shake well before drinking.

Does it need refrigeration?

It is UHT treated, so it keeps unopened without refrigeration. Chill it before drinking for the best taste.

How does it compare with Optimum Nutrition protein powder?

Same brand and similar protein quality, but no scooping or mixing. A bottle gives a fixed 50 g serving, while powder lets you set your own dose and flavor.

Is it a meal replacement?

No. It is a flavored milk shake with added protein, not a complete meal. Treat it as a protein supplement alongside food.

Our take on the Optimum Nutrition Optimum RTD

A ready-to-drink UHT milk shake with added milk proteins, sold in 500 ml bottles with 50 g of protein each. It is low in fat, has no added sugar and no artificial colors, and is meant to be drunk chilled as a protein hit on the go. Against rivals it stands out for the protein per bottle, since many RTD shakes carry 20 to 30 g; the trade-off is a thicker, sweeter drink than a plain milk-based shake. It suits gym-goers, commuters and anyone who wants a protein serving without mixing powder.
