Which flavor tastes the best? and what do you mix it with to make it taste better?

I am using the chocolate and I mix it with regular flavor almond milk. I have mixed it with skim milk also but think the almond milk is healthier and also enhances the flavor. Good luck. I also have used the Yoli chocolate and find it even better tasting.

I got the strawberry, and just mix with water. I'm sure milk (whatever milk you tolerate) would be better, but it has a pleasant enough taste with water to me.

I agree with most others...vanilla is the most versatile and makes awesome fruit smoothies with a lot of protein. I usually mix apple juice, a little ice, blueberries, strawberries and a half banana with a little greek yogurt for added protein along with two scoops of vanilla whey powder. Breakfast of champions right there!

Both chocolate and vanilla taste great. I generally get vanilla, since the flavor is more versatile. It tastes great mixed with milk and Gatorade (only tried vanilla in Gatorade). I also add to fruit smoothies.

We prefer the Vanilla so we can mix it with a bunch of different things to make our own flavor. It's generic enough for fruit smoothies and mixes fine. But when not making smoothies, I also add PB2 (by Bell Plantation) to make a peanut butter smoothie. (usually 3/4ths a scoop of vanilla and a tablespoon of PB2). Or add a teaspoon or two of cocoa powder to make chocolate. Or add both PB2 and Cocoa for a real treat. The point is, vanilla is so versatile! I don't often drink it straight as vanilla.

IMO the vanilla is better than the chocolate. I have not tried the strawberry though.

I prefer vanilla, for the ability to mix fruit and other flavors with it. This way you can switch up the flavor, and only have to buy one jug of protein. If I'm going for a quick shake, I will put a scoop in a shaker with milk or almond milk and a shake of cinnamon. Most of the time I mix it in a blender with ice, milk and fresh fruit. Also, here are a couple of favorite recipes: Banana bread: ice, milk ,1 scoop of protein, a banana, oats, honey and cinnamon Chocolate Peanut butter: ice, milk, 1 scoop of protein, chunky peanut butter, chocolate syrup

You can mix it with anything liquid, me myself I use v8 smoothies you can use anything to give it a good taste because without it, you might not be able to stomach it.

It tastes a bit like cooked eggwhite to me if you only mix it with water. Needs to be in a flavored beverage to avoid aftertaste, at least for my tastebuds. It's good high-quality protein, though. I think that using it in recipes is the best idea.

I prefer vanilla. Simply because it's the easiest (semi-neutral) flavor to blend in a variety of fruits, nuts or additives to enhance the taste.

yes, you need to mix it with something to take the edge off the flavor. I use an orange flavored (sugar free) drink. You have to remember you are drinking this to get healthy not because it tastes great. Besides after a while of drinking this stuff you get use to it and you find it does not taste that bad after all.

Water tastes pretty good if you are trying to get only the nutrition provided by the powder, but my favorite is mixing with whole milk. The extra calories from the milk help me put more weight on and it makes the the drink more like a shake. You can also use 2% or skim milk, but the less fat, the closer the taste gets to if you were to mix with water. I hope that helps! I love the powder and it tastes great, especially for the price.

I usually use water, but you can mix it with almond, soy or coconut milk and add fruit for flavor. (I use water to assure the calories are low.)

I mix it with coconut milk and berries. I think it tastes pretty good, but I haven't tried other combinations.

What should I use if I want to mix my "own solution"? Ingredients please? All ideas are welcome! :)

Yea, that'll work. For flavor, I mix with herbal tea, but honey or something is fine too

It tastes good-the vanilla is much better than I thought it would be. I like to mix it with half chocolate & add a little powedered peanut butter. But you have to be sure to use some kind of blender- if you just stir or shake it, it's way too gritty in texture.

why not mix with some olive oil as well as vinegar......and maybe some mild spices..........I think it would taste ok.....but hard to know for sure how you would like it.........also lemon juice added to mix could be nice

Yay! I hope you like it as much as I do. Plan on getting used to it for a few days. Add things like banana and peanut butter, or blueberries, at first so that you get used to the flavor. Enjoy!

Yes Mike. This is my regimen. I mix it 1 cup milk 1 cup water. Tblsp of Honey, Peanut butter, banana, berries and a couple of spoons of cinnamon. If you don't this taste, maybe try the vanilla or chocolate. I've been doing this for a year now. Every morning.

I like to use a heaping teaspoon with 12 oz . . . but then add to taste. Make sure the water is near boiling and you get the best result. Enjoy.

crushed ice, water or milk. Your preference on that. Everything else is in the mix. Come out like the best thick Mocha Frapp you have ever had.

I just dump the desired amount on my tongue and wash it down with water. Just about any liquid (juice, etc.) would do with that method. Never tried mixing it with anything first.
