Premier protein shakes...
How do you enhance the tastability of yours? I've tried powdered peanut butter in my chocolate and that was good. Today I tried some SF butterscotch pudding mix in my vanilla and ended up with too much pudding mix ( I added 2 tablespoons and it was toooooo much, next time I'll try 1 tablespoon). But, any hoo, I was just wondering how some of you enhance your protein shakes.
Thanks

I have put a couple teaspoons of the kids chocolate syrup in the vanilla. It was okay.
My suggestion is to try other brands. I can drink Premier shakes, but I much prefer the Syntrax Nectar protein powder. They come in 17 flavors and they are much more palatable to me.

I find it a little sweet so I dilute with about 1/3 cup of water. I agree extract or syrups work well. I've enjoyed almond extract. However I also prefer Syntrax. Besides in my program Premier is a no no due to blended protein source. However I don't do all they say ;)
i use Premier instead of milk in most recipes.

I had surgery the 17th, so not even a week ago. I loved all the Premier Protein shakes, except the Vanilla. The Banana Cream was my favorite pre-op. Now that I'm post op rny, I cannot tolerate the sweetness of any of them except the chocolate. I totally love the chocolate still.

A friend of mine used to add a little milk and banana and put it in a blender. I imagine putting some PB2 in it and then blend... it would be delish. I prefer the premier Protein in chocolate... ready to drink containers. I read that the premier protein powder is not as good.
