After my daily workouts, I struggled to find a protein shake I enjoyed. They were either too chalky, too sweet, or too artificial. And every brand seemed stuck on vanilla, chocolate, or strawberry. With so many untapped flavors, why do protein shakes feel like a chore to drink?

So I decided to make my own.

I had the idea to create a milk tea flavored protein shake. Milk tea is the signature flavor when it comes to boba tea beverages, and it’s a flavor I grew up with as the child of Taiwanese immigrants. For months, I iterated on a formula that balanced flavor and protein with carefully selected ingredients. That’s how Mako was born. With the help of my wife and friends, I refined the formula until I knew I created something I could enjoy every day.

I want to make fitness nutrition a habit you’ll look forward to.

Mako's mission: to make protein a better tasting habit through Asian-inspired flavors. As someone who makes fitness a daily habit, I know finding high-quality, delicious protein shakes can be challenging. Mako was built for the go-getters who refuse to compromise flavor for health, and want a premium protein shake that you’ll actually look forward to every day.
