    Try mixing in fruit. Or possibly changing your protein. I currently use Optimum Nutrition Mint Chocolate or Double Chocolate...tastes like a milkshake :).

    I drink the Mix1 protein shakes, they come in mix berry, mango and blueberry vanilla. They smell good and taste pretty good - no gagging here!

    my protein shake is 3 oz of tart cherry juice and 3 oz of pure pineapple juice and 1 scoop powder. IThe only way I can drink it is if I drink it right out of hte shaker cup so I only take the stopper out and I can't smell it as I drink it. If I drink it with the whole lid off of if I put it ina cup I can't stand it.

    I take EAS 100% chacolate whey protien. It's ok, but I add a banana to make it better. Also I some times mix it with skim milk or soy milk. Just in water is still ok. When I was younger I had this horible protien called Pro V 60 vanilla flavor. Worst stuff I tasted in my life. I had to pinch my nose and drink it and after downing how ever much I could I would stop drinking , but still hold my nose shut, then breathe through my mouth. After a couple of breathes I would let go of my nose. It was that bad. So if you have to do this every time with your shake, then it is time to get a new shake. I hear BSN has had some of the greatest tasting on the market.

    I LOVE BSN Lean desserts fresh cinnamon bun and I use 1 scoop, make a sludge (use cold water to get it liquidy but not too much) and add my hot coffee to it. Voila! Protein coffee....20 g protein just for drinking my morning coffee! :) I also like vanilla bean or any brand vanilla protein powder...but any flavor you would like a cappucino would make a good protein coffee!

    I only get banana or chocolate flavored and they smell and taste just like it.

    I blend the banana with 1/2 cup frozen fruit, 4oz milk, and 4oz water. I take the chocolate with just milk though I'll add peanut butter if I need extra calories.

    Beverly International has a good protein shake mix. I like the Cookies and Cream flavor with milk, tastes like cookies and cream shake!
