    I use Optimum Nutrition 100% Gold Standard Natural. Only 3g of Sugar and a total of like 7-8 ingredients. Mixes well and taste is just right. If a protein shake tastes too good, then its got too much sugar and artificial sweetener.

    I use Optimum's Isopure Low carb powders. No sugar and they dissolve cleanly in water.

    I just started using a new one (well, new to me) this weekend, called Tera's Whey. The breakdown is 110 calories, 5g carbs, 2g fat, 20g protein, and 3g sugar. I don't know how little sugar you were looking for, but this fits into my plan pretty well. I especially like the Fair Trade Dark Chocolate and Bourbon Vanilla flavors.

    GNC Total Lean 25, it only has 3 grams of sugar and has awesome flavor choices. My favorites are Banana, and cookies and cream! Drinking one right now as we speak!

    There are a ton of protein powders out there with < 1g of carbs.... you must be looking at things like SlimFast or more female geared powders.... move on from those... EAS has < 1g carbs. and the vanilla is very good. Also the Whole Foods brand, 365 is good.

    I'm sensitive to stevia and allergic to aspartame (and sucralose tastes like chlorine to me), so I went hunting for a few unsweetened ones last year. I've landed on Sun Warrior Raw Protein in Natural flavor (unsweetened has 16g protein per scoop) and alternate that with GNC's 100% Whey Protein (unflavored has 21g protein per scoop). If you're not sensitive to stevia or sucralose, there are quite a few low sugar ones out there. Sun Warrior's Vanilla is quite good and has 2.8g sugar. Now I want to go look up Tera's Whey since those flavors sound great!

    www.truenutrition.com and mix your own with no sugar and use stevia as the sweetener. Less than a dollar a day for most of their custom blends and they taste great. I stay away from the ones mentioned above as they may have no sugar but they do have artificial sweeteners. Just my preference. I've used in the past pretty much every protein brand mentioned above and they do taste great.

    EAS Lean 100 - 100 cals. Low carb (designed for diabetics). I use the powder, but their pre-mixed drinks are good too. And you can find at target and walgreens at a decent price.
