I use Unjury, seems to work pretty well for me.  Have you tried unflavored before?  I found out the hard way - LOL - that "unflavored" doesn't mean no flavor.  Still tastes like whey protein.  It just means it doesn't have any added flavor like choc, vanilla, strawberry, etc.  So your best bet will be to mix it into things with fairly strong flavor.  I mix it with Crystal Lite Fruit Punch, and it works well.

I also used the Unjury unflavored.  I liked it best.

I've used Nectar Medical.  It doesn't really have much flavor and I have mixed it with tea but wasn't thrilled with it.  I think the greatest thing is to find some protein you like and use it.  I look forward to my protein drinks these days.

 I hated the unflavored protein powder because of the smell and taste.  I went to chocolate when I could have full liquids.  

I see that you mixed powder it into hot chocolate.  I make a great hot cocoa.  Mix 1 scoop Hydro Whey (30 grams protein, or whatever type you like) in 4 oz of water and shake it well.  Heat 6 oz unsweetened soy or almond milk for 1 minute, stir in the protein mixture, then heat for 30 seconds at a time until hot.  Be careful to stir every 30 seconds so that it doesn't clump.

 I have struggled to find protein I like. For "unflavored", my best choice is Beneprotein. I ordered it from Amazon. It tastes a little like powdered milk, but doesn't have an after taste for me. 

Good luck! There seems to be a lot of trial and error. I belong to a support group that shares stuff we don't like, so I never feel anything is a total waste.

I used GNC unflavored and put it into strong flavored things too like Crystal Lite and  sf Hawaiian punch.

It really is trial and error in the beginning. Look online for some packets of unflavored protein powder. Unjury, bariatric eating, and vitalady are resources that I use.

Good luck.
