# Grande Ultra®

The best combination of clarity and flavor over a wide pH range available in a whey protein isolate

![bubbles](https://www.grandecig.com/hubfs/2024/Product_Pg_Images/icons/bubbles.svg)

Today’s consumers are looking for high-protein, ready-to-drink (RTD) beverages to support their active lifestyles — like sport drinks to refuel after exercise, low-calorie flavored water as a healthy alternative to soda, and meal replacement shakes to help manage weight. Beverages made with Grande Ultra whey protein isolate (WPI) answer consumers’ demands for protein and flavor, and their preferences for product clarity.

Grande Ultra WPI is produced in a patented process (patent number 8,431,174) that provides the best combination of clarity and flavor across a wide pH range. Its excellent protein profile and clean flavor makes Grande Ultra WPI ideal for:

- Sports & Protein Drinks
- Fruit & Juice Drinks
- Flavored Water
- Energy Drinks
- Nutritional Supplements

### Key Product Attributes

When compared to leading WPIs in the industry, Grande Ultra is the ultimate choice for fortifying protein content while maintaining great flavor and clarity. Plus, the essential amino acids in whey protein are the highest levels of Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) from a natural food source — making whey the gold standard for nutritional comparison.

- Superior clarity and stability in RTD beverages
- Stable up to pH 3.5
- Clean, neutral flavor
- Available acidified
