Mmm Premier Protein Chocolate Shakes Half Frozen
on 12/26/14 9:04 am - Toronto, Canada
First time trying them, and I just assumed they'd be tastier half frozen, and yep, they were delicious! I really couldn't think of what I needed or wanted for Christmas, so I told my sister if she was at Costco, to grab me some. Glad I did! These are way more delicious than the protein powder homemade shakes I have come up with. And obviously way more convenient. So yep, that was my Christmas gift, 4 cases of these babies. They taste like a chocolate milkshake. I bet they'd be good with coffee too. Lets hope I don't get sick of them before I finish the four cases.
Hope all had a wonderful Christmas! Snuggled up on the couch now watching romantic comedies with my pooch! Perfect end to a busy Christmas.
I like these too, I'm at the stage of getting in two of these a day and I do love them . Funnily enough I had my first decaf coffee thus morning and I was gonna put some in it but then I thought about the hot factor ?? I didn't have a good experience with protein powder and mushroom soup last week ( think lumpy wallpaper paste !) ...so I thought ...nah ! I'll try it another time . I'll let you test it !!
Yum !Half frozen ..must try , or even blended in the bullet with some ice ....McD's chocolate milkshake !!!
Your evening sounds bliss ....we are just home from Ze Mother in laws ......so just being home for me is bliss right now .........Jammies on , movies and my own bed
Merry Boxing day doll xx

I will be the guinea pig for that! Probably try it tomorrow. Per my quick search on here, others seem to mix it with coffee, so must be fine.
I just poured mine in a glass, and stuck it in the freezer for 10, it was almost frozen that quickly. I HATE it when you can't drink a shake fast enough and it becomes warm... barf.
PJ's all DAY!!! for me. Glad you are doing so well, xoxo

OH plus, I don't know about you, but I am a big fan of iced coffee, so that may be another option. Using the shake in sub of any milk or creamer.
I add some chai flavor to it - so yummy! I used these shakes instead of Opti and found a few tricks. I made one half frozen like Jennifer put added a few drops of mint. I didn't find them to be as good when heated, but YMMV.

I just pour it in a tall glass and stick it in the freezer, they freeze fast! In about ten minutes, it really tastes like a chocolate milk shake, and something about the frozen chunks in the liquid, makes it easier to take down, and more enjoyable, for me anyhow!
I like the premier protein drinks too.. you can heat them but be real careful, 10 secs at a time
Here is a recipe from their website, they have other recipes but the other recipes are heavy in fruit

1 teaspoon of instant coffee will make it taste like mocha :)
Caramel extract is yummy too
I like the vanilla.., I add a few drops of water enhancer to it to change up the taste.
