Bring home a splash of desert color with this vibrant Santa Rita Purple Prickly Pear, a stunning cactus native to Cochise County, Arizona. This striking pad is perfect for potting or propagation and thrives in full sun with minimal care.
🍃 Key Features
 Color: Pads blush rich pinky-purple in winter or under drought stress and fade to soft blue-grey in summer. Exposure to full sun deepens the color—especially when neglected or in dormancy.
 Flowers: Dark yellow blooms ringed with copper appear in spring to early summer, creating a dramatic contrast against purple-toned pads.
 Fruit: Produces edible purple fruits after flowering—loved by wildlife and great for subtle harvesting.
 Structure: A rounded, tree-like cactus that grows to 4–6 ft tall and 8–10 ft wide at maturity. Pads are nearly circular and often spineless or with few central spines.

🌿 Care & Growing Tips
Light: Full sun enhances color and bloom potential.
Water: Water every 2–3 weeks during warm months; monthly or less in cooler seasons.
Soil: Use well-draining cactus mix.
Cold Hardy: Tolerates down to 0°F to -5°F (USDA Zone 7) when kept dry.
Container Friendly: Makes a stunning potted specimen or low-maintenance landscape accent.
Note: The purple coloring is often a result of neglect or winter dormancy. Because we send healthy, well-cared-for pads, they may arrive more green-blue. Color change is encouraged with time and environmental stress (sun, cold, dryness).

Good taste, No sugar, Low Carb, High Protein
Flavor Name: Chocolate, Size: 11 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)
Highly recommended, no sugar, low carb, high protein. This exceeded my expectations. It tastes good chilled, much better than other forms of protein supplements. I have never had a ready mixed protein shake, so I was hesitant about buying it. Protein powder always tasted too strong & not good after taste. Although there are some Ok Protein bars, they do mostly have undesirable taste & not good after taste.

Great drink Great value
Flavor Name: Chocolate, Size: 11 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)
Love these drinks 30 grams of protein can’t go wrong. They taste is good the texture is not an issue. I blend mine with ice you can even put coffee in it and that is amazing. It is like a choc cappuccino. I feel better when I drink one in the morning.

A small drink of chocolate packs a large amount of protein
Flavor Name: Chocolate, Size: 11 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)
These drinks are very convenient. I can take them with me if I’m running behind or I can just drink them here at home. The taste isn’t bad, I can handle it, but it’s not like drinking a glass of chocolate milk. The texture is quite smooth as it is already mixed up for you and it is always the same. I have never had a batch that is not been the same taste. I like that I can drink a small bit of chocolate and gain 30 g of protein.

Drink one every day over ice! Great taste!
Flavor Name: Chocolate, Size: 11 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)
I’ve been getting Premier Protein Shake on auto delivery for a while now, and it’s one of the best decisions I’ve made for convenience and consistency. Each shake packs 30g of protein with only 1g of sugar, which makes it perfect for busy mornings or a quick post-workout boost without the guilt.  The auto delivery is a game changer—no more running out or last-minute store trips. It just shows up right when I need it, and I can easily adjust or skip deliveries if needed. 📦 Taste-wise, the shakes are smooth and actually enjoyable (not chalky like some others). I’ve tried a few flavors and haven’t been disappointed yet. If you’re looking for a reliable, grab-and-go protein option with zero hassle, this subscription is 100% worth it! 💪

Low Calorie, Great Taste!
Flavor Name: Chocolate, Size: 11 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)
I started drinking Premier shakes while recovering from lapband surgery in 2012. They are delicious, low calorie , high protein meal replacements, with no added sugar. I have tried most of the flavors and I have 3 -4 favorites that I rotate. They are great on the go and a good addition to iced coffee. A good part of my weight management process.
