is there anything that I can add to make the flavour of the natural pea protein flavour change a little bit. My local shop didn't have the flavoured ones and hubby just got me the plain one. I can get the drink down but I ususally skull it. I just think it taste weird being cold. could I use warm water to try and make it like a soup or wouldn't this work

    Pea protein is nasty. Add it to green smoothies.

    You can definitely buy flavourings to add to your protein. I googled it quickly and this was the first result https://professionalwhey.com.au/category/organic-flavourings/

    You can also bake with unflavoured pea protein. I was considering buying some for this purpose. Protein Pow has some great ideas here http://proteinpow.com/category/powder/pea

    Other than that, you could try making a fruit smoothie with it.
