    You guys need to find better protein powders if they're tasting so bad you need to add all that. :)

    Personally I've never had a problem with MyProtein Impact Whey or True Whey. I swear by their Chocolate Orange flavour. :)

    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!

    I use a chocolate whey powder with half a banana and PB2 (powdered peanut butter). I add enough crushed ice to blend it together. My wife hates it but I find it tasty.

    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.

    I use GNC and they are great with no aftertaste and I usually don't add everything you do. I have the vanilla and will add some fruit or such to it, I've also just added some instant coffee and made a coffee one with no aftertaste still.

    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.

    I like soy milk thank you, to me it tastes better then regular milk but thanks for the advice

    Myofusion and Syntha-6 are so good when made with just water that there's no reason to ever add anything.
