Real Milk Power Milkshake Frappe Review – We Tried 4 Variants

From milkshake mixes to bottled milkshakes, we have reviewed a wide range of milk-based beverages for their flavor, consistency and price. Another brand that has come up with a range of packaged milkshakes is Real.

Real is known for the delicious varieties of packaged juices in fruit and veggie flavors. Recently, they came up with its range of milkshakes in 4 classic flavors including French Vanilla, Belgian Chocolate, Strawberry and Mango. 

In our Real Milk Power Milkshake Frappe Review, we have tested all the 4 variants. Did we love one more than the others or were they all delicious and thick? Let’s find out.

From the available flavors to the shelf life, here is everything you need to know about the new range of Real Milk Power Milkshake Frappe. 

1. Available Flavors

• French Vanilla 
• Belgian Chocolate 
• Alphonso Mango 
• Strawberry 

2. Available Sizes

The Real Milk Power Milkshake Frappe comes in a standard size of 180 ml tetra pack. These are also available in a bundle-pack of 4 tetra packs. 

3. Price Range

A single 180 ml unit is priced at Rs 30/-. The bundles can cost you around INR 120. 

4. Shelf Life

All the variants of the Real Milk Power Milkshake Frappe are best consumed before 180 days from the date of manufacturing.

Our review process includes carefully selected parameters that will help us examine these milkshakes in a better way. This in turn will provide the end users with more knowledge so that they can make a better buying decision. Below are the details of the different review factors :

1. Packaging

How well a milkshake is packed has a huge impact on the taste and quality. A well packed milkshake reduces the chances of spillage during transit as well. 

The Real milkshakes come packed in tetra packs and are fully recyclable. 

2. Taste

The most crucial factor while reviewing any packaged milkshake is the taste. Milk shakes are a sweet milk based beverage that are sweetened ad contain natural fruits, ice cream, syrups and/or nuts and flavorings.

How rich and fresh do these milkshakes taste? Are these milkshakes overly sweet or contain a well balanced sweetness? Does the taste feel synthetic? 

3. Appearance

Appearance is another factor taken into account while reviewing a packaged milkshake. How similar is the color to the original fruit or flavoring (for example chocolate) used? Does it look artificial?

4. Aroma

The aroma of the milkshake should represent the flavor mentioned on the pack. We checked how robust or weak is the aroma of the flavoring used?

5. Freshness & Quality

This determines how fresh the milkshake tastes. From the milkiness to the intensity and freshness of the fruit or chocolate/vanilla flavoring used, how fresh does the product taste. Do the milkshakes have any industrial aftertaste? 

6. Consistency

In this factor, we see how thick or thin the consistency of these milkshakes is. Does it have a creamy and rich consistency? Are the milkshakes too flowy?  

7. Level Of Sweetness 

Milkshakes are meant to be sweet. You don’t expect them to be low on sweetness, unless mentioned otherwise. But sweetness that gets overpowering will affect the overall taste. An over-sweetened milkshake can lower the intensity of the fruit or flavoring used as well. 

We checked how well balanced is the sweetness and the type of sweeteners used.   

1. Alphonso Mango

We started off our review process by testing the Alphonso Mango flavor. The pack that we reviewed had a net weight of 180 ml. The packaging looks attractive and is eye-catching. The 180 ml of tetra pack is priced at INR 30. You will find the nutritional information on the pack. 

This milkshake frappe has a pale yellow color. Now talking about the flavor and consistency of this variant. It was the best tasting one among the others. It has a well balanced sweetness and contains a fresh, prominent Alphonso taste. The mango flavor doesn’t taste artificial or industrial. In comparison to a homemade mango milkshake, the consistency was a bit thinner.

• The shelf life of this product is 180 days from the date of manufacturing.
• It comes in a single serve tetra pack.
• For a best tasting experience, make sure you consume it chilled. 
• It is free from added preservatives.

Likes

Best Suited For

This frappe is best suited for individuals who are looking for a quick and instant mango-licious milk based beverage. The packaging is travel friendly and can be packed for tiffins and snack-boxes. 

2. Belgian Chocolate

The Belgian Chocolate flavor was the second variant that we tasted. We reviewed the 180 ml pack which comes at a price of INR 30. The nutritional information is mentioned on the pack. 

On opening the pack, we noticed that the color of this frappe was similar to that of a regular chocolate milk. It isn’t too dark nor too light.

Chocolate milkshakes are thicker and more decadent than fruit based milkshakes. This one too had a thick consistency. The Belgian chocolate milkshake has a very delicious fudge-like flavor. This is higher on sweetness in comparison to the mango flavored milkshake.

Features

• The 180 ml of tetra pack is priced at INR 30.

Best Suited For

3. French Vanilla

Next on our list is the French Vanilla flavor in the Real Milkshake Frappe range. Vanilla is such a basic flavor that the quantity and intensity can be hard to perfect. This is a white colored milkshake with a pleasant vanilla aroma.

Unlike regular vanilla milkshakes we make at home, the French Vanilla has a thicker consistency and a richer taste. The flavor of French vanilla milkshake was like eating a melted ice-cream. Yum! This was our second favorite flavor after the Alphonso Mango variant.

Features

• The 180 ml tetra pack is priced at INR 30.
• It comes in a travel-friendly packaging.

Best Suited For

4. Strawberry

Finally, we come to the Strawberry Milkshake Frappe. Like the above variants, we ordered the same 180 ml tetra pack for this variant. This milkshake frappe had a rose pink color. 

Compared to the French Vanilla and Alphonso Mango flavor, it had a fairly better and thick consistency. The fresh quality of the milk added to the overall flavor. The strawberry milkshake frappe is delicious and moderately sweet, but we feel the intensity of strawberry could have been more. 

Features

• It comes in an attractive packaging.
• Shelf Life : 180 days from the date of manufacturing.
• Contains no added preservatives.
• It contains UHT treated flavored toned milk.

Likes

• The color of this milkshake frappe was vibrant.
• We loved the refreshing taste of this variant.

Among the 4 variants that we reviewed, the Alphonso Mango Milkshake Frappe was our top pick. The presence of Alphonso Mango flavor and the fresh tasting milk won our hearts. French Vanilla was the second variant that we liked from the list.

They both taste delicious, fresh and have a milky creaminess which we loved!
