I just discovered that Costco is selling an eight pack of Super Coffee with four bottles of Vanilla Latte and four bottles of Mocha Latte per box. I found the Super Coffee on the shelves, unrefrigerated, with the bagged coffee beans.

What is Super Coffee
Super Coffee is enhanced coffee that has been infused with milk proteins and various flavorings. The coffee has zero added sugars and the flavors available at my Costco are Mocha Latte and Vanilla Latte.
The coffee comes in a shelf stable, 12 ounce bottle with 200mg of caffeine and 10g of protein. For reference, the Kirkland Signature Cold Brew coffee has around 225 mg of caffeine so you will get a nice pick me up from just one of these drinks.
The drinks also come with a dose of MCT Oils which, according to the manufacturer, are helpful for weight loss for people on a ketogenic diet.
You can drink the coffee straight from the bottle but most folks enjoy it over ice. You can heat and serve the drinks but I really wouldn’t recommend it.
The coffee is shelf stable and will last for about 12 months unopened. Once the bottle is opened it will last about a week in the refrigerator.
Taste Test!
Overall I think both flavors taste pretty good.
There are no artificial sweeteners in the drinks but they are sweetened with Monk Fruit and Stevia and you can pick up those flavors pretty readily. The sweeteners are not off-putting but are noticeable.
The flavors are true to the labels with the Mocha having plenty of chocolate and the Vanilla has the creamy, fruity and floral profile that is true to form.
There is an even balance of coffee to latte in the flavors and overall I would call the drinks creamy, refreshing and flavorful.
Between the two flavors my favorite is the Mocha Latte. It would be an interesting experiment to see if you could turn this into a Mocha Freeze like you get from the Costco Food Court!
Calories
One bottle of Super Coffee is a single serving and has the following nutritional information:
- Calories: Vanilla = 70, Mocha = 80
- Fat: Vanilla = 2.5g, Mocha = 3g
- Cholesterol: Vanilla = 5mg, Mocha = 5mg
- Sodium: Vanilla = 85mg, Mocha = 80mg
- Carbohydrates: Vanilla = 3g, Mocha = 4g
- Protein: Vanilla = 10g, Mocha = 10g
The drinks are lactose free, gluten free and keto friendly.
For comparison purposes, the Fairlife Protein Drinks at Costco have about:
- Three times more protein
- Two times more calories
- Zero caffeine
So, if you are looking for a meal replacement protein drink then buy the Fairlife. If you are looking for a meal supplement, or a great mid day pick me up, then buy the Super Coffee.
Price at Costco
The eight pack of Super Coffee is Item Number 1713990 and is found on the shelves with the other bagged coffee products.
The regular price of the coffee is $16.99 or $2.12 per bottle.
I think $2.12 for a coffee drink is a bit expensive but I guess it is a deal when you compare it to buying one of those overpriced, sugar loaded drinks from Starbucks.
Either way, I bought these on sale for $4.00 off and was pleased with the purchase.
