Extracts for flavor

I had surgery 11/28 and am doing very well with all of the help and hints I get from you guys so I thought I would share one of my own. Because I detest the taste of the protein drinks I checked with my surgeon and it is ok to flavor them with extracts like vanilla extract that you would use for cooking. I so far have used lemon, strawberry, peach and orange with the vanilla or chocolate Isopure hope it helps Nita

Thanks Nita for the tip, I hadn't thought about the extracts. I have found 2 things that help mine though. I have a so-so tasting vanilla protein mix so I blend it up with vanilla soy milk and splenda then add either sugar free Raspberry DaVinci syrup or sf Caramel DaVinci syrup I buy at Walmart to make shakes that taste like the regular raspberry or caramel ones, or I mix in some cinnamon and nutmeg and have a pretty decent eggnog shake, I love the ones they sell at the fast food places this time if year and miss them!

Hey! I had my surgery on 11/28 too. I've discovered the Crystal Light Sunrise mixed with water makes a great flavoring for my protein drink, with some ice in the blender it's like a orange milk shake. I'm sure it would work with any of the other flavors too! Good luck and God Bless, Karen
