    I've made mine with soy, rice, almond, coconut and hemp milk. Soy and Almond milk were by far the tastiest ;o)))

    If so what kind (non fat dairy, almond, soy...) and why?

    I have been making mine at home with a blender and using plain Greek yogurt. I am going to start making some at work with a shaker, and I think I will add milk to improve taste / consistency.


    I am predicting a 30/70 ratio of serious to innuendo replies :glasses:


    I never use "Milks." I always use no sugar/low sugar drinks with or with frozen fruit>>>Sugar Free Kool-Aid; SF Hawaiian Punch; Reduced Sugar Juices. I also only use Vanilla Whey Protein Isolate; I could do more with Vanilla and I like it best.

    I used to use milk, but then I tried Silk and last night I tried Silk Pumpkin Spice. It was yummy.

    Usually 1% milk , sometimes almond milk. Also add a banana and a cup of blueberries for vitamin and fiber goodness.

    I do, I only drink goat milk. I barely get my calcium intake as it is so the milk helps. I tend to use semi skimmed and about 150-200 ml. I always add a banana, and something like strawberries as well as it it is horrible without it. I drink soya protein.

    Most of the time I just use water, the one I use tastes nice with just that.
    Occasionally I have milk, usually when I need the extra calories - I use semi skimmed.

    I use whole milk (it's what my kids drink) or soy milk in mine for the calories and for improved taste. Protein shakes taste like crap if they're made with water.
