Hi.
I wish I could be more helpful and specific, but, really, everyone likes different protein shakes, and one can crave a certain one and the next person will taste it and go "Yuck!" If you have a GNC nearby, you might see if they will give you different samples. That way, you can try different ones, to see which your tummy likes. Protein powder or shakes can get pricey, so you definitely want to know that you'll like and use what you buy.
Good luck in your quest. :)
Blessings,
Mary

I really like the Whey Protein powder that I get at WalMart.   They have vanilla, cookies and cream, chocolate and strawberry.  I have only tried the vanilla.  I add milk, a banana, sometimes chocolate syrup....ice....whatever!

Two scoops is 52 grams of protein...and I think it tastes great!

Make sure it is Whey Protein...much better for you and easier to digest.  It comes in a BIG container....lasts forever!

GNC also has a protein drink that is 40 grams of protein.  It is a flavored water drink.  I have only tried the grape frost...not bad!

Good luck!

You might do a Google search using 'protein' and 'sample' as keywords.  Maybe you can obtain some samples rather than shelling out $25 and more on protein powders.  Personally, I found the EAS protein powders and shakes to be pretty tasty - especially the AdvantEdge low-carb ready to drink.  EAS products are available most places - WalMart, Sam's, etc.  Look online, though.  You can find some pretty good deals. 

For a treat, try Bolthouse Farms Perfectly Protein (1 liter bottle).  It tastes like cappuccino and I found it in WalMart (in the yogurt section).  It has 10g protein per 8oz.serving - not great, but pretty decent.  You can mix it with coffee and it tastes great (if you like mocha cappuccino).  Regulate your self accordingly, though; it also packs 178 calories and 29g of carbs in the same 8oz. serving.
  I limit myself to one-half to one serving a day.  Good luck!
