Jocko MOLK Raspberry Gelato Is Here, and It's Landing Well

Jocko MOLK Protein Shake RTD just added Raspberry Gelato to the lineup, and early reception has been strong. If you haven't crossed paths with MOLK yet, the short version is in our full product breakdown: 30g of milk protein from grass-fed cows, zero carrageenan, zero added sugar, and a stabilization system that took real formulation work to pull off. Raspberry Gelato brings that same foundation to a tart, dessert-forward profile that reads as a deliberate pivot away from the chocolate-and-vanilla safe zone most RTD shakes never leave.

The brand's commitment to clean-label formulation didn't happen by accident. If you want to understand the philosophy behind it, the PricePlow podcast episode with Jocko Willink and the episode with chief science officer Brian Littlefield lay it out directly. Every ingredient decision runs through that lens, and Raspberry Gelato is no exception.

Raspberry Gelato: Tart and Creamy Where Most RTDs Go Neutral

The flavor profile here signals something specific: bright raspberry up front with a gelato-style creaminess behind it. That's a harder combination to land in a protein shake than it sounds. Most RTD formulas either lean into artificial sweetness or produce a thin, watery berry note that doesn't stick. The Reb-M and monk fruit sweetener pairing Jocko Fuel uses -- which rounds out more naturally than older stevia derivatives -- is well-suited to something like Raspberry Gelato, where the sweetness needs to stay clean so the fruit character can come through.

The flavor is available in 12-bottle cases through Vitamin Shoppe and carries the same 355mL can format as the rest of the MOLK lineup. Early reviews have been positive, with customers calling out the texture and flavor balance specifically. No artificial sweeteners, no soy lecithin, no carrageenan. If you've been waiting for MOLK to add a fruit-forward option, this is it.

Quick Formula Check

Raspberry Gelato appears to run on the same core formula as the rest of the MOLK RTD lineup. The Nutrition Facts and ingredient list from the Vitamin Shoppe product page match the existing formula exactly. For the full breakdown of why each choice was made, the Jocko MOLK product article goes deep. Here's what's in the bottle:

• Jocko Protein Blend (Milk Protein Concentrate, Calcium Caseinate) -- 30g - Milk protein delivers a natural whey-to-casein ratio, so the recovery signal starts fast and carries through. Both sources are from grass-fed cows. No carrageenan in the stabilization system, which is the formulation detail that separates this from most competitors.
• High Oleic Sunflower Oil - Contributes to the 4.5g total fat and helps create a smooth, full mouthfeel. More oxidatively stable than standard sunflower oil, which matters for a shelf-stable RTD.
• Reb-M (Rebaudioside M) and Monk Fruit Extract - The zero-calorie sweetener pairing. Reb-M is the most sucrose-like steviol glycoside, and combining it with monk fruit rounds out the sweetness profile naturally. No added sugar, no artificial sweeteners.
• Cellulose Gum and Cellulose Gel - These two plant-derived stabilizers do the job carrageenan would typically handle. More formulation work, cleaner result.
• Gellan Gum and Locust Bean Gum - Secondary stabilizers that work together to keep the texture consistent and the protein in suspension throughout the bottle's shelf life.
• Sunflower Lecithin - Emulsifier that keeps the oil phase evenly distributed. Soy-free.
• Sea Salt (as Sodium, 160mg) and Potassium Citrate (as Potassium, 120mg) - Light electrolyte presence for post-workout context. The sea salt also suppresses bitterness in the protein matrix.
• Sodium Phosphate - A calcium-chelating agent that prevents milk protein from coagulating during heat processing. Keeps the formula stable at shelf.
• Natural Flavors - Deliver the Raspberry Gelato profile.
• Calcium (780mg, 60% DV) - Comes from the milk protein itself, not a separate fortification. A meaningful dose for bone and muscle function.
