You should check out Victoria Bowen and Kathy S web site. they have some great ideas on how to fix protein shake that taste good. They really helped me out. Because those protein drinks are awful without a little help.

I mix the vanilla (Herbalife - Thermojetics sugar-free)with Crystal Lite (any flavor) instead of water and add a couple of slices of banana and an ice cube in a blender to thicken a little. It's really good! The chocolate I mix with Canfield's Diet Chocolate Soda, slices of banana, ice cubes and maybe a teaspoon of dry Hershey's powder (I get the chocolate I'm craving in a healthy blend). Use your imagination!

You didn't say what kind of protein you are working with? Soy? Whey? Brand name? How are you making it up now? How much what to how much what?

Try Extreme Pure Pro and make a drink with one scoop of powder and 12 oz. of water. This is a protein drink that tastes more like kool aid (fruit flavors) and I do much better with it than the drinks that are mixed with milk. You will get 27 grams of protein per drink. I also like lots of ice in it.
