Hi ... I use skim milk and about 5 ice cubes with two scoops of chocolate
designer protein, in a blender. It's great !!

I use either de-fizzed diet orange soda, and mix it with the french vanilla
Designer Protein in the blender to make a creamsicle, or de-fizzed diet
cream soda and mix it with the chocolate protein for an egg cream-like
shake. I imagine the diet cream soda would taste good with the strawberry
or vanilla, too. You can also add 2 tsp. of fat free yogurt to thicken. I
haven't tried it, but stay away from the Vanilla Praline Designer Protein
as I hear it's nasty, but the French Vanilla is good.

WATER. And some ice, maybe. Or sugar free things like pop or Crystal
Light, to taste. Milk adds too much sugar and may make it too thick to
drink, comfortably. 2 scoops with water is perfect. Body builders add milk,
skim milk, for more calories. We don't want to go there. There are LOTS
of other proteins available that are tasty and make into a smaller glass,
too.

hi, I mix my designer protein ( 1 scoop )with 1/2 cup of skim milk, a
couple of ice cubes and a pack of nutra sweet in the blender. Chocolate
is the best. I know the skim milk adds a few extra calories , but it also
adds extra protein and vitamins. it tastes really good and creamy too.

I use either skim milk or soy milk. I have also used soy protein powder
(dry soy milk) with water when I blend my protein shakes. It greatly
increases the protein content to use soy milk or soy powder. Read the
labels and make sure that they fall within your own doctor's guidelines.

I mix my vanilla and my berry protein with orange jucice or cranberry
juice. I also make rotbeer floats and orange floats with Vanilla Protein
and diet soda and crushed ice. Both are very good!

Skim milk or powdered skim milk is best because it adds more protein to
your drink :o)

I use 1/3 c Naturade protein powder,few ice cubes 8 oz skim milk, and two
tsp.sugar free NestlesQuik to flavor....sometimes add 1/2 c sugar free fat
free chocolate frozen yogurt too...basic shake gives you 32 g
protein...great start on the total 50-60 g protein you need for the day.I
am 9 weeks post-op,down 71 lbs, labs are perfect and no hair loss..lotsa
energy too...good luck.

Water, I can't use milk I am lactose intolerant. Also another suggestion
is fruit juices 50/50 with water of course. My favorite is Designer
Vanilla with 50/50 orange juice and water for breakfast. Another
suggestion is flat Diet Root Beer mixed with vanilla. It is also good. Of
course with this one I use more root beer than I would water or fruit
juice.

I mix mine with 1 cup skim milk, and some icecubes. You can put fruit in
it to make it tasty. Fruit juice is also great with it, or sugar free
yogurt.
