"What if our daily protein boost could feel like chai?
How It Started
Growing up, chai wasn't just another drink. It was a beloved ritual in my home. My mother brewed it from scratch every day. Once the smell of black tea, ginger, and cardamom reached our rooms, we’d all inevitably end up at the kitchen table. It was a daily routine that brought a sense of comfort to our everyday lives.
Fast forward to my adult life, and my daily routine looked a little different. I’d started the habit of protein shakes after the gym, but truth be told, it was a chore. I’d chug down an artificial, chalky beverage just to hit my protein goals, never actually enjoying the drink.
"What if our daily protein boost could feel like chai?"
My husband Erik was the one who made me realize that the things that actually stick aren't forced habits. They’re rituals. So we asked ourselves: what if our daily protein boost could feel like the chai I grew up with?
Together, we created ProteinChai by combining ultra-filtered milk (for naturally high protein) with the exact spice ratios I learned in my mother's kitchen. It’s a beverage that honors my heritage, now crafted to fuel your body too.

The Founders
Gita & Erik
While I brought the recipe from my mother’s kitchen, Erik brought the perspective that changed how I looked at my health. He’s always been the one to champion nutrition and optimization, believing that the best results come from routines that feel natural.
ProteinChai is the result of my heritage meeting his belief in a better daily ritual. We’re so glad to share it with you.
Taste the ritual, feel the comfort.
Cheers! - Gita and Erik
