1st Phorm Brings Back Summer protein flavors: Root Beer Float & Orange Dreamsicle
There are certain flavors that don't just taste good; they take you back...
A sip of root beer float instantly brings back memories of summer nights, old-school diners, and that perfect combination of fizzy root beer and melting vanilla ice cream. Orange Dreamsicle is the flavor of chasing down the ice cream truck and peeling back the wrapper on a hot summer afternoon.
Now, 1st Phorm is bringing both of those nostalgic experiences back with the return of two limited-edition flavors of their flagship whey protein isolate:
Root Beer Float
Orange Dreamsicle
And not only are these some of the most fun protein drops of the summer, BUT they are some of the best flavors of Phormula-1.
Nostalgia Meets Performance
The supplement industry loves to throw around words like "innovation" and "next generation," but sometimes the best products are the ones that make us feel something.
That's exactly what these flavors do.
According to 1st Phorm:
"Creamy vanilla melting into fizzy root beer sweetness... every sip of Root Beer Float takes you straight back to the glass you grew up with."
And with Orange Dreamsicle:
"The smooth, citrusy cream flavor you remember from peeling back the wrapper on a hot summer day."
This isn't just another cookie or cereal-inspired protein flavor. This is pure summer nostalgia.
The Formula That Made Phormula-1 a Staple
Of course, great flavors only matter if the formula delivers.
That's where Phormula-1 stands out.
Per Scoop:
23 grams of protein
110 calories

The ingredient panel is refreshingly simple:

Just a straightforward whey isolate designed to digest quickly and help you recover after training. I’m a BIG fan of a simple, high quality whey isolate and this is something I personally use every day after my second training session next to 1st Phorm’s fast-digesting carb source Ignition.
Why Whey Isolate Still Matters
Whey protein isolate remains one of the gold standards when it comes to protein supplementation.
Because it's filtered to remove most of the fat and lactose, you get:
High protein per calorie
Rapid digestion and absorption
Excellent amino acid profile
A convenient way to support recovery and daily protein intake
For a lot of people an isolate can be a game changer to help them hit their protein goal THUS earn better results.
And when you can get all of those benefits in flavors that genuinely make you excited to drink your protein shake? Wins all around.
Limited Time Means Exactly That
If you've been around the supplement industry long enough, you know one thing:
The best seasonal flavors have a habit of disappearing.
Then six months later, everyone is asking the same question:
"Why didn't I buy more when I had the chance?" That's the danger with these releases.
Root Beer Float and Orange Dreamsicle aren't just flavors. They're experiences. They're memories.
And now they're also a pretty delicious way to get an extra 23 grams of protein into your day.
The Powerhouse Journal Take
The supplement industry often overcomplicates things.
Sometimes all you need is:
✔️ A quality whey isolate
✔️ A simple label
✔️ Great flavors that make you actually look forward to your protein shake.
1st Phorm checks all three boxes here.
Whether you're team Root Beer Float or team Orange Dreamsicle, these are the kinds of seasonal releases that remind us fitness doesn't always have to be serious.
Sometimes, it can taste a little like childhood too.
Now the only question is… which flavor are you trying first? I’ll take both. Reviews coming soon.
