Mint Chocolate Cookie

This mint chocolate chip powder misses the mark on its namesake flavor. While the chocolate notes are present and generally agreeable – a standard cocoa powder profile that doesn't taste artificial – the mint is frustratingly subdued. It's more of a whisper than a declaration, leaving you searching for that refreshing, palate-cleansing kick that defines a good mint ice cream. The result is a pint that tastes like a mild chocolate ice cream with a vague, cool aftertaste, rather than the vibrant, balanced experience you'd expect.

Texture-wise, it spins adequately, achieving a reasonably dense and creamy consistency on the first pass, though it can benefit from a re-spin if you're looking for ultimate smoothness. However, no amount of re-spinning can fix the flavor imbalance. If you're a true mint enthusiast, you'll find yourself reaching for a bottle of peppermint extract to doctor this pint, which defeats the purpose of a flavored protein powder. It's a chocolate powder that *happens* to have a hint of mint, not a true mint chocolate chip contender.
