Making Whey protien shakes taste better

I think it depends on the protein powder you use - I use HerbaLife Formula 1 and it is not sweet at all on its own - so it picks up the flavors of my ingredients nicely with no after taste. One I like (I use the NutiBullet - hands down smoothest, creamiest shakes I have ever made at home) is this one:

half cup crushed ice
banana
tablespoon of natural peanut or almond butter
scoop of Formula 1 protein powder
1.5 ups of unsweetened almond milk

YUM and works great as a meal replacement

So today I tried making my first blended protien shake and it is good but has a weird after taste. Does anyone have any advise to get rid of it. I added no sugar so maybe that's it.

My shake is
3/4 Greek Vannilla Yogurt
1 1/2 Soy Milk
1 1/2 Blueberries
1 scoop of Whey Protien powder
1 teaspoon Vannilla Extract
1 1/2 cup of ice

You might not like the taste of the whey protein you're using I get Spirulina now instead. Also, soy milk is gross; you might want to change that for something with a better taste like vanila enriched rice dream or even milk. Lastly, isn't greek yogurt kind of not sweet? I'd use something else.

My preworkout smoothies are simple: low fat yogurt, calcium enriched OJ, and half a scoop of protein powder. Ether vanilla on the yogurt and pp, or coffee/chocolate.

gnc whey is spectacular. the advanced kind is a little ick, but the regular whey rocks.

I use protein shake mixes that taste AaaaAAAaaaMAAAAZING on their own. No need to add anything.

You could... just get better protein. There's plenty of them out there that are good with just water, so you don't need to add extra calories with all that other stuff.

What kind do you have, is it flavored? I always buy the Vanilla flavor Whey. The unflavored kind is a bit "off" in taste, to me.

And I second the adding of PB2. I do a scoop of protein powder, 2 TB PB2, milk and ice. It's awesome.

I'm a peanut butter junkie and there's a great product called PB2, which is a powdered form of peanut butter that has all the oils and fats removed. 2TBSP is only 45 calories and I typically use half of that in my whey shakes and they taste fantastic.

THIS^. I use this all the time, had a shake today with pb2

I make the same thing every morning after lifting, its simple & delicious!

-Cup of almond milk
-Half banana
-Handful of spinach or kale
-1 tsp of psyliium husk/chia seeds or flax (you can omit this if you don't have it)
-Handful of ice
-1 scoop whey (I use Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard)

Maybe try Vanilla Almond milk? It's SUPER sweet, like seriously Milkshake sweet if you ask me, it has a lot of sugar tho... but it'll certainly sweeten things up.
I also really like unsweetened vanilla almond milk in my shakes find it gives is a nice little hit of sweetness. I've also used sugar free vanilla pudding in my shakes, it thickens them a bit as well!

After taste is usually the protein powder. I can't stand anything from GNC or Vitamin Shop, to me they have a very bad after taste that I can't get rif of.

I like using BSN syntha 6. It honestly tastes great, and I hate that protein-y taste.

I mix it with milk, ice, & instant coffee (chocolate milkshake flavor). Although many people I know just drink it with ice & water.

^^ This ^^ I switch between the BSN line and the Optical Nutritions Gold Standard line.... both are good. I mostly add either fresh or frozen fruit and almond milk with mine. Sometimes a small amount of PB or shredded coconut.
