Protea Drinks: Iced Protein Tea Subscription in SG
Share
Singapore is a city that never slows down, so there’s little time for messy shaker bottles or sugar-loaded café drinks that weigh you down.
If you’re looking for a protein tea that satisfies the need for clean, light, and refreshing nutrition, you’re in the right place: protea is the first ready-to-drink protein iced tea in Singapore, with each bottle delivering 20 grams of grass-fed whey isolate protein with only 80 to 100 calories and 0 sugar.
Ultra-filtration removes all lactose and the milky aftertaste, leaving you with the clean flavours of real low-sweetness Jasmine, Osmanthus Oolong, or Chrysanthemum tea. There are no artificial flavours, no colours, and no thickeners.
protea’s ingredients are simple and easy to understand: grass-fed whey isolate for clean protein, freshly brewed tea for authentic flavour, natural sweetness without any sugar, and a touch of salts to balance out your minerals. You can see a detailed breakdown in our "what's a protea" post.

Why protein iced tea matters for busy Singaporeans
The hidden protein gap in local diets
Many people in Singapore do not get enough protein for active, healthy lives. The average intake is about 0.8 grams per kilogram of body weight, which falls short of the 1.3 to 1.6 grams recommended for building or maintaining muscle.
Most options for increasing protein are either inconvenient or heavy on calories and sugar, with many protein shakes containing 180 to 220 calories to deliver 20 grams of protein. protea provides the same protein with just 80 to 100 calories and no sugar, making it one of the most efficient options available.
That’s only around 4 calories for each gram of protein. A cold, portable protein tea that fits into a work bag or gym tote makes it easy to bridge this nutrition gap without any meal prep or cleanup.
Tea culture meets muscle recovery
Singapore’s love for unsweetened iced Jasmine and Oolong tea is long-standing. By infusing these familiar teas with complete, high-quality protein, protea turns a daily ritual into a smart way to support fitness and well-being.
Polyphenol and whey synergy
Polyphenols in tea and the amino acids in whey protein can work together to deliver strong antioxidant effects. This combination helps your body manage post-workout inflammation and boosts your immunity, making every sip of protea more than just refreshment.

Getting the most from protea
Once your subscription is started, here are some of our customers’ favourite ways to drink their monthly batch:
For pre-workout hydration and focus
The natural caffeine in unsweetened iced tea helps improve mental clarity and alertness before exercise. At the same time, the fast-absorbing whey isolate gives your muscles the protein they need to perform at their best.
For faster post-workout recovery
After training, your body needs high-quality protein to repair and build muscle. The high leucine content in protea’s whey isolate helps trigger muscle protein synthesis, while tea antioxidants may help reduce oxidative stress, so you recover faster and feel ready for your next session.
How to get started
Protein should taste like real tea, not like dessert. protea’s ready-to-drink protein iced tea combines grass-fed quality, ultra-clean ingredients, and the kind of convenience that fits perfectly with life in Singapore.

Frequently asked questions
Is 80 to 100 calories enough after a workout? Yes. Each bottle contains 20 grams of pure whey isolate to support muscle recovery, with no extra sugar or fat.
How sweet is it? There is no sugar at all. Natural sweeteners are used to avoid aftertastes from artificial sweeteners.
Is it lactose-free? Yes. The ultrafiltration process reduces lactose to less than 0.5 grams per bottle, which is below the level that most people can tolerate.
Does it taste milky? No. The filtration removes almost all milky notes, so what you taste is clean, real tea with protein that does not interfere with flavour.
Can I drink it hot? Yes. You can gently heat protea to about 60 degrees Celsius if you prefer your Oolong warm, but if you go too much over it the protein will start gelling, so be careful!
