I just got some shakeology packets in the mail today. I was wondering, does it taste better with water or milk. Any suggestions?

    I like blending it with water & ice. Then adding fruit in it to add some flavor. :)

    I use a combination of skim milk, almond milk, and a little water to thin it out. It is really thick with only 8oz of liquid so it depends on your taste too. Good luck!

    I mix mine with water, but you can also add fruit or juice to them. i also add a scoop of protein powder to them. i don't like the greenberry taste by its self but to me adding the protein makes it taste better. check the beachbody web site they have recipes for the shakes on there.

    I like mine better with unsweetened Almond milk and 4 ice cubes. I will also add, pepermint extract to get a minty taste. I have used coconut extract also. Adding peanut butter, bananas, or any kind of fruit makes a good shake also. There are so many things that you can do with it! I love mine! After I make it, I stick it in the freezer for a little bit to make it a lot colder adn gives it a thicker texture.

    do you have chocolate or greenberry?

    chocolate is better with almond or soy milk and ice. i would also add an extract (like peppermint, coconut, etc) to give it flavor without adding lots of calories. i like to add 2 tbsp of PB to mine with milk and lots of ice. its makes it thick and creamy.

    for greenberry i would say adding any type of berry and OJ or coconut water, and ice.

    I don't know anything about shakeology! Is it something you can keep up for life? Why are you guys using it? Does it taste good?

    cant describe the taste .. but its not my favorite. i drink it for the nutrients and because i know its good for me, but its not as yummy as the chocolate. some people love greenberry and others dont. i heard they are coming out with a new flavor soon.

    ok i dont want to go against the rules but Shakeology is a Beachbody Product (the same people who make P90X, Turbo Jam, etc) it is a meal replacement shake that has over 70 different ingredients.

    I'm in the same boat. All I know is people rave it or hate it, and it's too expensive for someone like me!
