I like Soylent, but not every flavor. So when the new Cafe Chai came out, I had to try it.
My favorites are Coffiest in the morning and Chocolate. I am not a big fan of Nectar, and I hate the Original non-flavor. Soylent is a meal replacement, not a diet drink: 400 calories in a bottle that is easy to keep at your desk or grab on the way to work. I do not even know what chai is supposed to taste like, so this was a true first taste. Cafe Chai has since been discontinued, so the button goes to Soylent’s current ready-to-drink shake.
- Spicy cinnamon flavor that hides the soy taste
- Convenient to grab when you are busy
- 400 calories helps stave off hunger
- Square bottles pack with less wasted space
- Smell is very herbal
- Flavor no longer sold

What Soylent is
It is just a meal replacement. It is not a diet drink or a weight-gainer. It replaces a meal.
The best thing about it is convenience. I keep some at my desk and grab one when I am busy.
The new bottle
The bottle is square-ish, which is different. When you pack square bottles together, there is less wasted space than with round ones.
The label has a burnt-rust, cinnamon, baseball-glove reddish orange color, a bit like Nectar.
Taste test
It smells like walking into a botanical garden, very herby. In the glass, it does not look white like milk. It has an almond-milk look.
The taste has a spicy cinnamon kick and aftertaste that masks what I think is an obnoxious soy taste. Like Chocolate and Coffiest, the flavor is dominant, so the fact that you are drinking a meal replacement is secondary.
About the buy link
Soylent Cafe Chai is discontinued, and the old link was just an Amazon search for Soylent. The button goes to Soylent’s current Complete Protein ready-to-drink shake (Chocolate, my favorite flavor), sold in 11 oz bottles. It is a newer formula, so check the nutrition on the listing.
Verdict
Pretty good. Right now I only order Coffiest and Chocolate, but I would add a box of Cafe Chai to the mix.
Nectar just was not a taste I liked, but this chai is really quite good.
