Just wanted to do a survey and find out what you all think is the best and most effective protein drink you use. Whether it is a post workout shake or used as a snack every now and again? I haven't found one I am comfortable with. It is either tasting good but too high in sugar, or high in protein but a bit nasty on the mouth.

    I found one at Sam's club -- 160 cals, 30g of protein and it comes in chocolate and vanilla. I've never had the vanilla ones, but the chocolate have a taste that is ok. Company is Premier Nutrition -- think they have a website.

    I've found that the protein powders that are fruit flavored aren't great. Stick with the chocolate and they're usually tolerable or even taste good.

    Promasil protein powder. 90 calories per scoop, 0 sugar, 0 carbs, and 20 grams of protein! I have the soft serve vanilla flavour that I mix with low fat milk and some frozen fruit...a few seconds on my Magic Bullet and it's ready to go...delicious! I also have the Milk Chocolate flavour that I add bananas to, also very good.

    anyone recommend a good one that is lactose free? I loved my body by vi shakes but a friend bought them for me and I can't/won't spend that much out of my own pocket.I love the taste of them and they didn't make my stomach hate me...lol....so recommendations for something like that, that is also lactose free :)

    The best I've found is Optimum Nutrition Solid Gold Whey Protein, mocha cappuccino flavor mixed with hot black coffee. One scoop of powder mixed with 12oz of black coffee has 25g protein, 3g carbs, 1g fat, tastes like a mocha and mixes perfectly.

    Lean Active 7 by Nutracore Nutrition. Tastes great, only has 1g fat, 1g sugar, and gives you 30g protein per scoop and 4 g fiber. Has added probiotics to it, CLA, and a really good amount of anti-oxidants. It is my protein I use before bed and is the protein I will use once I start cutting (I use a mass gainer after workouts right now). It is good for after workouts as well as before bed/ anytime throughout the day because it is a blend consisting of: whey isolate, whey concentrate, egg, 2 different casein proteins, and a milk protein.

    Needless to say I am a huge fan!!!

    I used to use nectar by syntax (vanilla torte). Zero fat, sugar, and carbs. It tasted great, but I became intolerant to dairy so I had to switch because it's whey protein. I would reccomend it to the dairy tolerant though.
