    I drink it shaken with milk (shaken, not stirred).

    My husband drinks it in his coffee.

    Holy Hell that is a great idea.. I must try this!

    I turn mine into bars. 40ish grams of powder + 35ish grams of syrup (I use half BioNeutra for the fiber and half honey to cut the cost down) plus some dry mix-ins (chocolate chips, coconut, dried fruit, chopped nuts, whatever I have) and it makes a reasonable facsimile of a Quest bar.

    I make banana/chocolate/PB protein pancakes. Yummmmm
    (1 scoop chocolate protein powder, 2tbsp PB2, 2 tsp baking powder, 1 banana, 0.5 cup raw oats, 3 egg whites. Mix everything in food processor and cook like a pancake on a griddle)

    Thanks for all the tips! I'd have to adapt some of it (allergic to PB, don't drink coffee... yes I'm one of those freaks :wink:) but at least I know I can (and should!) experiment more with it.

    Though that said, I really think that the powder I have is just plain disgusting. We'll see after I do some more smoothie blends for research.

    In oatmeal with fruit.
    In a shake with oats and ice.
    Leftover morning coffee in a shaker cup with ice for an afternoon pick me up.
    Mixed in greek yogurt.

    After some more experimenting, I've come to the conclusion that my protein powder is just disgusting and nothing will help it. I was able to try my brother-in-law's Whey and have decided to go down that route - though I really did want a vegan powder (not a vegan, but "close enough"). So there's that.

    Thanks for all the input and suggestions!!

    Anyone in Sweden who wants 2kg of disgusting vegan protein powder???
