We’ve all seen the protein shake powders and the refrigerated protein smoothies, but Welch’s Protein Smoothies are a new category of dairy-free beverage. These convenient snacks are frozen, so you can enjoy a very cool fruit experience.
As a heads up, these freezer pouches are produced by a company called Big Easy Blends, not Welch’s. They license the Welch’s name.
Welch’s Protein Smoothies put the Squeeze on Frozen Dairy-Free Drinks
Just like your favorite smoothie, Welch’s Protein Smoothies are meant to be enjoyed a little icy. The pouches are kept frozen, but removed from the freezer to thaw for just 5 to 10 minutes before eating. If you’re starving, you can place one under warm water for 30 seconds instead. Then you massage the pouch, open, and squeeze to enjoy.

Bad after taste
The fruit tastes great, but I’m left with a nasty bitter taste after swallowing it. I assume it’s from the soy protein, which my body does not respond well to. This was purchased for me to help get a little more protein in as a pregnant mom. I wish it had yogurt for the protein rather than soy isolate.
My family loves these!
Our favorite is the peach mango.
Great meal replacement
I tried these bc Im lactoce intolerant and bc Im always on the go. They are great tasting and satisfying.
Excellent
Very good,enjoyed all the flavors. But a little pricey!
Awesome
So delicious and convenient
pretty mucha miracle for me
so i suffer from GERD & most would assume it is just a severe form of heartburn, but its much worse. many premade smoothies on the market contain either milk (which whole milk triggers reflux) or lime / lemon juice (a gigantic heartburn trigger) ; this is pretty much the only brand on market i have found containing neither of those, and i can safely drink them without terrible heartburn. it also contains protein which i severely lack. im so glad i can have this. never stop making it
Toddler Saver
I’m a new mother going through the ‘picky’ eater phase with my 18 month old. These are my go-to for breakfast or snack when he refuses everything else and I appreciate the constant. His preference changes daily as well as weekly but he’ll ALWAYS enjoy a smoothie pack.
This Products is great! I use half and the cap it back up and drink the rest later!
I love these so much! thye do a great job of replacing smaller meals or snacks.
Yumm
So good
