PRODA is the beverage innovator reimagining soda through the lens of everyday nutrition. Spotlighting Shirley Temple Protein Soda, the world’s first Shirley Temple protein soda and one of the brand’s hero functional flavors. Built around one of America’s most nostalgic soda profiles, the beverage delivers 10g of complete protein and 3g of prebiotic fiber in a crisp, sparkling format that moves protein beyond the traditional shake experience.

Shirley Temple Protein Soda sits at the center of PRODA’s mission to bring protein out of the supplement aisle and into everyday refreshment. With bright cherry-citrus flavor, zero sugar, only 45 calories, and real soda-like carbonation, the beverage showcases PRODA’s clear whey protein isolate formula designed to deliver complete protein without the chalky, heavy taste consumers often associate with protein drinks. The beverage represents a significant technological leap in functional drinks: a clear whey protein isolate formula that maintains the “real bubble” carbonation of a traditional soda.

“We built PRODA because we believed consumers shouldn't have to choose between the nostalgic joy of a soda and their nutritional goals,” said Jeff Church, co-founder of PRODA and former CEO of Suja Juice. “The Shirley Temple flavor is the perfect embodiment of that vision. It’s playful, it’s delicious, and it happens to be packed with high-quality protein and fiber. We’re giving people a smarter way to drink soda without sacrificing the fizzy experience they love.”

Designed for a wide demographic ranging from health-conscious millennials and “cool moms” to fitness enthusiasts, the Shirley Temple Protein Soda is 0g lactose, gluten-free, and caffeine-free. Unlike traditional protein drinks, it is light and refreshing, making it an ideal companion for a mid-day lunch, an afternoon slump, or post-workout hydration.

“PRODA was created for real life, not just the gym,” added Matthew Postlethwaite, co-founder and wellness entrepreneur. “Our Shirley Temple soda feels like a treat, but functionally, it’s a powerhouse. By launching nationwide with Sprouts, we are making high-quality, delicious protein accessible to anyone looking for a better-for-you swap in their daily routine.”

Product highlights include:

  • 10g Complete Protein (Clear Whey Isolate)
  • 3g Prebiotic Fiber for gut health
  • Zero Sugar & Zero Net Carbs
  • 45 Calories per 12oz can
  • No Corn Syrup or Artificial Sweeteners
  • 0g Lactose & Gluten-Free

Pricing & Availability:
PRODA Shirley Temple Protein Soda is available immediately at Sprouts Farmers Market locations nationwide. The suggested retail price is $3.49 per 12oz can. In the month of May, you can grab two cans on promo for $5.

About PRODA:
PRODA is a protein soda brand built for real life. Founded by Jeff Church, co-founder and former CEO of healthy beverage brand Suja Juice, and Matthew Postlethwaite, Peaky Blinders actor and wellness entrepreneur, PRODA was created to make protein more approachable, enjoyable, and easy to reach for every day. Each 12 oz can delivers 10g of complete protein, 3g of fiber, zero sugar, and real carbonation, with nostalgic soda flavors including Shirley Temple, Classic Orange, Cherry Lime, Strawberry Lemonade, Lemon Lime, Golden Apple, and Root Beer. PRODA is available online at DrinkProda.com, Amazon, and exclusively in brick-and-mortar retail at Sprouts Farmers Market nationwide. Follow the brand at @Drinkproda
