in Getting Started
Water?
Milk?

Do you add anything else besides the above, if so what?
I bought Plantfusion - Protein - Vanilla Bean for protien since I'm trying to take meat out of my lifestyle change (personal choice, please don't argue it) and I wanted to know what other people add to their protien shakes?

Its also really hard to reach 1,200 with no meat so that's a problem also...any advice will help,thanks!

    depends on the protein powder. Isopure unflavored I'll mix into my coffee or when I'm making jello. Syntrax nectar goes in smoothies or gets mixed with crystal light. I tend to not like the sweeter flavors like vanilla and chocolate.

    Water and ice. Usually toss in some PB2 for more flavor depending upon what I'm making. Lean1 has by FAR been my favorite protein powder for flavor and texture... makes a perfect milkshake every time and is delicious mmmhmmm

    I mix it with water and add frozen fruit or bananas. I really like frozen mangos and pineapple together.

    I shake mine with unsweetened vanilla almond milk. It creates a fuller flavour than water, as I don't drink milk.

    Well it depends on what flavor you have, but for a faster absorption you can mix it with water or you can make a shake if you care about that taste.

    Most of the time I mix them with water, but I also like them with Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk.
