Protein Shot!!

Ok, so we all know how nasty some of our protein shakes can be, right? Well, last week I was browsing bariatriceating.com and noticed some 3 oz. protein shots as noted in a previous post. It's a 6 bottle box and it was $25. The 6 bottles each contain 45g of the 65g of daily protein needed. I think it's a great idea. So, they come in the mail yesterday. My first reaction was excitement. I opened one and it's awfully thick and I put a taste to my lip and YUCK!!! I thought maybe they'd be better. I refrigerated them overnight thinking they'd be better cold. This morning I decided to mix half of 1 shot (22g) with a bit of water and chug it. OMG!! I only got half way through 1 chug and nearly threw it back up. Since when did my gag reflexes become so strong? Ok, so I continued to look at the rest and tell myself, "Self, you have chugged way worse than this back in the day. I mean, 4 horsemans, kamakazis, jager-bombs, red-headed sluts, Alabama slammers? YOU can do this!" I managed to get it down and keep it down, but I wasn't happy. This afternoon I'm trying it in a Yoplait Light Smoothie. It's not too bad. Any other ideas on mixing? Encourage me please!!
