Thanks ladies I'll give a few of those a try! I like chocolate and coffee flavored stuff but I know I will need more of a variety. Luckily my husband likes protein when he works out and he will eat or drink anything. So it won't go to waste. 

I love to have a morning iced latte. When could you all have caffeinated coffee again? I figure I could make a protein latte mix

Syntrax Nectar Chocolate Truffle is my go to shake. I like dark chocolate so I add a teaspoon of Hersheys Dark Cocoa in the can it's the sugar free one. It's my chocolate fix and I sometimes mix it with low fat vanilla soy milk. You can also use sugar free almond milk or plain water. Vitamin World usually has small trial packets. Get a few and try them. Everyone's taste buds are different.

I live on Syntrax! I have the strawberry moose or coffee flavors inthe am with skim milk for breakfast and one of the fruit flavors with water later in the day. I love fuzzy navel and twisted cherry, and with the fruit ones tend to taste better wit 12oz of water. 

Ps, you could not even pay me to drink isopure.

I am glad these samples are available. It pretty terrible, blowing 30 bucks on a huge jug of powder and finding out it tastes horrible. Then, trying to figure out ways to "hide" it

If you like your iced latte in the morning you may want to check out Click coffee protein powder.  Yummy!  It comes in different flavors and decaffeinated also.  I have found it on Amazon.

I love Nectar -- I think I've had nearly every flavor... my favorites are Vanilla Bean Torte (agree with Lora!!), Double Stuffed Cookie and Chocolate truffle -- I mix those with unsweetened almond milk or cashew milk.

In the fruity flavors, I love the fuzzy navel, strawberry kiwi, and cherry.  I always mix them with water flavored with a complimentary Mio or Crystal Light.  The only flavors I didn't like were grape and cappuccino.  

For Iced coffee flavor, I like to use one packet of Starbuck's Via, Cold water, 1 scoop of vanilla bean torte and sweetener to taste.  It's wonderful!!

Love the Nectars! I don't drink protein drinks very often, but will turn to the Fuzzy Navel or Caribbean Coolers when I do. As Grim said, they are one of the few protein drinks I have found that work great with water. In the summer especially, I am not a fan of thick, milky shakes (it's a texture issue).
