    Default Best Tasting Protein Shakes????

    Trying to take a poll on the best tasting shakes out there, both powders and ready-to-drink.

    I like premier protein chocolate ready-to-drink, but HATE the strawberry. Not really liking the New Direction Shakes anymore, as that was my pre-op drink from my nutritionist's office...I think it's a mental block now! I bought a few ready-to-drink ones at the vitamin shoppe this weekend and am trying to feel them out one by one.

    I have ordered the single packets of syntrax nectars as well, but they aren't anything to write home about.

    Just seeing if there's something out there that I haven't found yet!

    Thanks!

    GNC go lean 25 powders are good, for strawberry flavor I like pre-made muscle milk strawberries and crème- a little more sugar but oh so tasty. Premier protein chocolate was my favorite post op while pre-op vanilla was my go to.

    Believe me, I tried a LOT of protein drinks. Right now I'll only drink premier chocolate.
    I eat their chocolate peanut butter bars - I me they are the best combo of taste and protein
    Good luck.

    I am 2 1/2 years out and still will have a Premier Protein premade shake. I love all 3 flavors but vanilla is the best because I could use the Torani sugar free flavored syrups in it so it opened up a ton of flavors for me.

    Good luck

    I have a ton of the syrups as well and didn't even think about adding them to the pre-made shakes! Mind blown! Thanks, Stacy!

    My ultimate favorite shake is the Atkins Cafe Caramel flavor. I also drink Premier Protein shakes in all three flavors.

    IMHO, the EAS AdvantEdge shakes have a funny chemical undertaste that I simply cannot shake off.

    Besides those mentioned, I like Big Train Fit Frappe chocolate (mixed with cold coffee when I added caffeine).
