Grab and Go Ketogenic Butter Coffees- Bulletproof, REBBL, Picnik

Ketogenic Butter Coffee?

Don’t know what ketogenic butter coffee is?  Well, it goes by many names like keto coffee, butter coffee, Bulletproof coffee, etc. What makes these coffees “keto” is they all contain an abundance of high-quality MCTs– medium chain triglycerides– which help stoke your keto fire. Or, in other terms, MCTs help stoke your internal fat burning machine! There are myriad benefits including increased energy, mental clarity, fat burning, and for those sensitive to caffeine, it can even help with the caffeine jitters! [Check out our complete guide to MCT oil!]

Not so long ago, the only way you could enjoy keto/butter/Bulletproof coffee was to make it yourself. But that’s no longer true. Now there is ready-made ketogenic butter coffee at your fingertips! Below, we compare 3 awesome ready-to-drink options that are widely available in the US. There are various other options like portable packets you mix into your coffee of choice as well, but we’re leaving them off this list. The drinks we review are made ready to grab and go, making them extra convenient!

Pro Tips:

• We love pairing our on-the-go ketogenic butter coffee with any of our low carb and keto-friendly cookies! Check out our post on our favorite four keto friendly cookies here!
• If you find either of these three options not sweet enough you can always put a few more drops or dashes of your favorite keto sweetener.

Bulletproof Coffee 

The one that started it all.

• Cold Brew coffee
• Bonus points for using the high-quality Brain Octane Oil, which contains only caprylic acid (C8) MCTs
• Grass-fed butter
• Contains 12g of sugar alcohols (erythritol and xylitol)
• There’s a version available with protein (collagen)
• 5g net carbs per container
• Shelf-stable for longer shelf life and doesn’t have to be stored refrigerated
• Can order online and in stores.
• Tip: The whole range of Bulletproof coffee ready-to-drinks is low carb.
• Tasting Notes: The best out of the bunch. The sweetness really evens out the flavor, though it’s really only a hint of sweetness overall.

REBBL Reishi Cold-Brew

You could easily overlook this one in the cold aisle at the grocery store since it doesn’t overtly advertise that it’s a keto-friendly coffee.

• Contains reishi, a medicinal mushroom that, among a laundry list of benefits, also increases mental clarity. The result is fewer jitters and a lot more focus. Combine this with the mental clarity you get from running off of ketones and it’s a pretty potent combination.
• Also uses Cold Brew coffee, which is less acidic than typical coffee and improves the taste profile
• Coconut Milk base, so it is actually dairy-free and doesn’t contain any butter
• USDA Organic and very slightly sweetened with stevia
• No added sugar (1g sugar total per bottle)
• 3g net carbs per bottle.
• No added protein, which can be good for moderating intake of protein for ketosis
• Available to buy online via Amazon Fresh.
• Store locator here
• Tip: I like to add a few drops of organic stevia (NOW Foods Glycerite is my favorite) to introduce a little more sweetness. It really brings out the flavor.
• Tasting notes: The coconut really comes through here. It’s a very pleasant flavor if you normally enjoy coconut-infused drinks.

Picnik Cappuccino Butter Coffee

We have written an extensive review of Picnik’s butter coffee in the past. At the time, it was one of the only widely-available keto coffee drinks out there that you could get delivered to your door.

• No added sugar, this flavor only
• 4g net carbs per bottle.
• Fortified with whey protein — only comes with added protein, unlike Bulletproof and REBBL
• Available online and in some stores.
• Tasting Notes: The richest tasting one, though there is a strong taste/after-taste. Actually, the name matches the description well– it does taste like a cappuccino– except without any sweetness. If you add a hint of sweetness (like how milk adds sweetness to a real cappuccino), it tastes more like an iced latte/cappuccino.
