The June Degustabox introduced me to a new brand - Be Fast. I had received 2 bottles of the Be Fast Banana Flavoured Breakfast Drink. You might remember me mentioning that it would have been nice if two different flavours were included in the box rather than one. Well, I was lucky enough to get the chance to try out 2 other flavours from the range - Strawberry and Chocolate.
High in fibre and low in fat, the Be Fast range is a good source of protein and many essential vitamins and minerals. From experience I knew the drink tastes best chilled, so I popped my bottles into the fridge as soon as I received them. The drink comes in 250ml bottles and one bottle in the morning is enough to keep me going until lunch. I had mentioned the same in my Degustabox review as well. The Banana Be Fast kept me satiated for long but I was not very keen on the flavour. Strawberry and Chocolate score better on the taste front though. The Strawberry flavoured one is delicious - not overly sweet like many other strawberry flavoured products tend to be. But the winner is undoubtedly the Chocolate one. I just love it. And so does Mr.H. It is almost like Chocolate milkshake :) But considering that Be Fast is 98.5% fat free, I can enjoy it guilt-free unlike a traditional milkshake.
The Chocolate flavoured breakfast drink is definitely going to be a regular at our home. They will come in handy when I am pressed for time in the morning or when I simply do not feel like preparing breakfast. These drinks are also perfect as breakfast on the go.
Give them a try if you haven't already.

I should maybe consider something like this. Lately I've been so busy in the mornings, I'm not getting proper nutrition and it really effects my blood sugar for the rest of the day. Thanks for the review :)
ReplyDeleteYes, this is a time saver and tastes yummy as well.
DeleteThank you for sharing! Every day, well almost, my wife makes either a smoothie or juices fruits and veggies for me. What a difference it makes.
ReplyDeleteOn those days she doesn't this would be a great supplement. I'll definitely check into it.
Thanks,
Don
Good to have a few bottles handy. Its healthy and delicious as well.
DeleteThis sounds like a great meal for people who are on the go! So many times, I try to drink breakfast drinks like this, and I don't always feel so great afterwards. Also, the taste isn't always so great. It's good to know that these taste better! Thanks for the review!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely one of the better tasting ones...
DeleteGreat to know! I love cooking breakfast but it is nice to know of something that is great for those times that I don't have the time! We all have those days! Does it leave that thick after taste that some of them have?
ReplyDeleteNo, Cindy. It does not leave any unpleasant after taste. In fact it leaves me craving for more :-)
