Nectar - How Do You Mix This?

I give up.  How in the world do you mix this stuff?  I have tried a shaker bottle, but still end of with nasty clumps of protein.  Same thing in the blender?

What am I doing wrong?

I just mix it with a spoon;  I can't imagine why a blender wouldn't work!

What flavor? The only flavor I always get lumps with is the Apple one. The iced tea & lemonaid work just fine in my shaker.. the apple I have to whizz in the blender and then put in the fridge till the foam goes away- or scoop it off.. I won't get apple again..

I put the water in the glass first and mix in the protein a little at a time.  If you dump the whole scoop it will clump.  If you add water to the powder it clumps (for me).  I stir with a spoon. The shaker bottle and blenders make them to foamy for me. 

Sometimes I have to let the drink sit for a minute and I stir it again ... especially the lemonade.

Hope this helps.

Advice from DD (a cooking whiz - which I am NOT!):

always add liquid to dry. She suggested, when I had the same issue, starting with the scoop of protein. Add about a tablespoon of liquid, and stir with a spoon until you get a paste. Add the rest of your liquid, and then the blender ball or spoon or whatever will mix it much easier.

She's been right.

Thanks everyone.

I'm going to try these suggestions.

 i use a blender bottle most of the time.  i have found that the colder the liquid the more it clumps, especially is i am using cold milk or soymilk.  the solution?  i put the liquid in then add the scoop, stir it down with a utensil breifly, then add the blender ball and shake.  then let it foam down for a bit, then shake it again until the clumps are gone.  this takes a bit longer but i find that with a bit of patience it mixes and tastes much better.
