Syntrax Nectar Whey Protein Isolate, Fuzzy Navel by Syntrax® - Protein Powder
When your no longer in the mood for chocolate or vanilla and want something fruity the sector products are great. My favorite is the Fuzzy Navel. I did try the Caribbean Cooler and unless your a total coconut freak steer clear of that one. The Strawberry Kewi is alight but not something I'd buy again. Their website normally has sample boxes you can order for less and try all the flavors which I recommend before committing to a full tub. Also the unflavored is perfect for adding to things like chicken broth. The broth remains clean to slightly cloudy but isn't foamy or chunky at all.

I was dying to get my Nectar Fuzzy Navel protein after reading all the reviews, and because I was sick of drinking chocolate and vanilla.
So, what do I think? IT'S OKAY.
I don't think it's all it's cracked up to be...at least according to all the rants and raves.
I like it because it's something different. However, I can still taste the protein. I don't think there is a product out there where you can't taste the protein. It's not a strong taste, but there is definitely a hint of it. The actual flavor reminds me of a toned down "Tang" or "Sunny-D" (by toned down I mean not as sweet or zippy). I use my immersion hand blender right in the glass to mix it all. So, it mixes quite smooth.
I will say there isn't the bad protein aftertaste that some of the other protein drinks have. That get's two thumbs up from me.
Overall, it's okay. I like it for variety, but it's not my favorite.
I love this drink and many of the other Nectar flavors. I have some in the Grab and Go packs and this flavor in the large container.
These are FANTASTIC when you need some more protein during the day without extra carbs and fat, and the it tastes like Crystal Light Peach tea.
Here is what I do:
I mix mine with 20 oz of water; however, this is all depending on how sweet you like it. I tend to mix all drink mixes (Crystal Light, too) with more water than it calls for on the package. Then, I put mine in the refrigerator for a couple of hours. It is the perfect snack when I need something.
I love the Grab and Go packs and always have a couple in my purse for emergencies.
