Xplosiv Protein Water is a clear whey protein isolate drink mix made for Xplosiv in New Zealand — 17.2 g of protein per 20 g serve in a light, juice-like drink with under 1 g of sugar and just 308 kJ. Add water, shake, and sip your protein instead of chewing it.
- 17.2 g whey protein isolate per serve — supports muscle growth and recovery after training, from a fast-absorbing isolate base.
- Clear and juice-like — a refreshing, watery texture instead of a thick, creamy shake; 0.2 g fat and 0.2 g sugar per serve.
- 4810 mg naturally occurring BCAAs — including 2620 mg of leucine per serve, straight from the whey isolate.
- Just add water — mixes in seconds, no blender or milk needed; 20 serves per 400 g pack.
- Six flavours — Tropical, Raspberry, Pineapple, Watermelon, Grape and Peach.
Allergens: Contains Milk and Soy. Made in a facility that also handles wheat, gluten, peanuts, tree nuts (almonds), eggs, sesame seeds, crustaceans, molluscs and fish.
Why it works
Sometimes a thick shake is too much. Post-training, in the heat, or mid-afternoon, a heavy, milky protein shake can sit badly when all you want is something cold and easy to get down. A clear protein drink fills that gap.
Whey isolate, dissolved in water. Each serve delivers 17.2 g of whey protein isolate — a filtered form of whey that carries minimal fat and lactose — so the protein arrives in a light, transparent drink rather than a creamy one. Protein supports the growth and maintenance of muscle mass and recovery after resistance training [1].
The numbers are on the panel. 17.2 g protein, 4810 mg BCAAs (2620 mg leucine), 0.2 g sugar and 308 kJ (about 74 kcal) per 20 g serve — printed in full on the Nutritional Information tab, not hidden in a blend.
Hit your daily protein target without another milkshake. Cold water, one scoop, done.

How to use
- Mix one scoop. Add 1 scoop (20 g) to 400–600 ml of cold water in a shaker.
- Shake hard, 15–20 seconds. A clear isolate can take a few seconds longer to fully dissolve than a milky powder — a firm shake and a moment to settle clears most lumps.
- Drink cold. Best straight after training, or any time you want a light protein hit through the day.
- Adjust to taste. More water makes it lighter and more juice-like; less water makes it more intense.

What customers say
"Tastes just like a juice. I'd recommend it if you're struggling to get in those last few grams of protein, or just want to drink it." Zach K. — Verified buyer ★★★★★
"Pineapple — I love this flavour! Tastes just like pineapple frujus, I'll be trying to make my own iceblocks from it." Karen S. — Verified buyer ★★★★★
"It was actually really good. Super easy to drink — literally tastes like Raro." Hynda T. — Verified buyer ★★★★
"Delicious, low cal, mixed well." Iona M. — Verified buyer ★★★★★
Stack with
Built for the lighter days. Lifters reach for Protein Water when a thick shake feels like too much — in summer, between meals, or straight after a hard session. Many run it alongside a creatine monohydrate through a training block, and keep a tub of standard whey for their bigger post-workout shake.
FAQ
How much protein is in Xplosiv Protein Water?
Each 20 g serve (1 scoop) provides 17.2 g of whey protein isolate, plus 4810 mg of naturally occurring BCAAs including 2620 mg of leucine. A 400 g pack contains 20 serves. The full per-serve and per-100 g panel is on the Nutritional Information tab.
What is whey protein isolate?
Whey protein isolate is whey that has been filtered to a higher protein concentration, removing most of the fat and lactose found in regular whey. The result is a light protein source that dissolves clear in water rather than turning thick and creamy like a standard whey shake.
Does it taste like a milkshake or a juice?
It's designed to drink like a juice, not a milkshake. Mixed with water it stays clear, light and refreshing — with 0.2 g of sugar and 0.2 g of fat per serve. Customers compare the flavour to cordials and fruit drinks rather than to a creamy protein shake.
Does it contain any allergens?
Yes. Xplosiv Protein Water contains Milk and Soy (whey protein isolate, with soy lecithin emulsifier). It is also made in a facility that handles wheat, gluten, peanuts, tree nuts (almonds), eggs, sesame seeds, crustaceans, molluscs and fish. It is not suitable for anyone with a dairy or soy allergy.
How do I mix it so it isn't lumpy?
Add one scoop to 400–600 ml of cold water and shake firmly for 15–20 seconds. Because it's a clear isolate, it can take a few seconds longer to fully dissolve than a milky powder — letting it settle briefly after shaking helps any remaining lumps disperse.
How many calories are in a serve?
One 20 g serve is 308 kJ (about 74 kcal), with 0.5 g carbohydrate (0.2 g sugars) and 0.2 g fat. Most of those kilojoules come from the 17.2 g of protein, which makes it a light way to add protein without a heavy, high-calorie shake.
Can I drink it on non-training days?
Yes. It's just a light protein drink — useful any day you want to top up your protein intake, whether you've trained or not. Many people use it through the work day or while travelling simply as an easy, low-sugar way to hit their protein target.
