Fruity protein powders

In order to improve taste, I usually buy protein powders that go good with milk (chocolate, vanilla, etc.). However, I may get sick of mixing with milk after a while.

Just wondering, if I were to try something like fruit punch flavor, is there a certain drink that it goes good with?, or should I stay away from the fruity flavors?

Thanks

i have yet to find a protien powder, in another flavor other then chocolate or vanilla, that i can stand...is it that your tired of the "milk shake" taste or your just getting tired of plain chocolate and vanilla


ps yay for my 2,000th post

I think that I may want to get away from the "milk shake" taste once in a while. I'm just looking for other possible alternatives that still have a decent taste (if any).

Whey Fruity (that's the name of the tub) supposedly is highly rated for this. Watermelon if I recall.

Never tried, but start search there. I think you will find out what you need. A little more expensive, but might be worth the one time change

My grandfather was Earl (unbeatable) "wild cat mccann" Carrier. Weilter weight world champion wrestler in 1933 by beating Jack Renolds. Renolds was later murdered by the mob for having lost. Earl held the weilter weight for most of his career, then moved to hold the middle weight. He was 5 foot 5 inches. Cool history huh?

I was just getting ready to ask this question myself. My wife cannot stomach any of the milk based whey powders and she was asking me tonight if there were any that you can mix with waster such as a fruit punch.

If anyone has any advise or alternatives please let me know.

There is an ON Whey fruit punch flavor... perhaps mix it with fruit punch kool-aid (or whatever fruit punch drink) ?

I remember seeing some "Isopure" brand with several fruity flavors of whey isolate.

Never tried them though.

Isn't that logic a little skewed?





People puke every weekend from alcohol, but they sure as he-- still buy it.

I got a free sample of banana flavoured Mega Milk at my local BB shop. I only mixed it with water and ice and it was delicious! My friend, who uses nitrean all the time, tried it and was amazed by the flavour as well.

I think its pretty expensive, but they do sell it in single serving packages if you wanted to sample it.
