Review: Great Recovery drink! Plant based version - Update 29/01/2025. Since High5 changed the formula of the normal version, I've steered clear. But I tried the plant based version and its almost like thr original. I always use High5 nutrition, you literally can't go wrong and its wallet friendly. This recovery drink mixes well and tastes ok. It's not as good as the chocolate flavour, but still very nice with skimmed milk. I like the fact there are no sweeteners, you try and find another protein shake that doesn't use them!
Review: Quite sweet, but the flavor is good and it doesn't even seem vegetable - Excessively sweet to drink straight, but if you mix it with plenty of water and a little of another Whey, which is less sweet with a different flavor, it's also good when mixed with fruits like strawberries, it's wonderful.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Recovery drink! Plant based version
*by M***Y on 14 June 2022*

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quite sweet, but the flavor is good and it doesn't even seem vegetable
*by R***O on 10 October 2023*

Excessively sweet to drink straight, but if you mix it with plenty of water and a little of another Whey, which is less sweet with a different flavor, it's also good when mixed with fruits like strawberries, it's wonderful.

### ⭐ WARNING: They have ruined this great product 🙁
*by A***S on 26 July 2023*

I, like a lot of others it would seem, have used high 5 recovery drink for a few years. I had it set up as an Amazon subscription. I always used Berry flavour in the summer and Chocolate in the winter and I genuinely used to look forward to my drink (made with skimmed milk) after my run. The most recent tub however is disgusting. Like some other reviewers, I initially thought it must be off. The colour of the dry powder was different (a sort of dirty beige, rather than the former bright pink), the consistency was much thicker and 'foamier' than before and the flavour has gone from being light, fruity and natural tasting, to thick, not so fruity and with a horrible powdery chemically aftertaste, that lingers at the back of my mouth. I emailed High 5 with the lot number, assuming I must have got a bad tub. To my astonishment, they pointed out this is actually a new and improved formulation! It absolutely is new, but it most certainly is NOT an improvement! Unfortunately, whether by (very) misguided design, or for purely cost-cutting reasons, High 5 have completely ruined this once great product. They have lost a customer and Amazon has lost a subscription purchaser. If you've used and liked this before, I'd definitely recommend proceeding with caution with your next purchase. I'd also be extremely interested to hear from a y long-standing users of this drink, who a actually prefer the new version.
