Drink it! LOL
I bought a large Timmies decaf and put it in the fridge. That substituted for the water. Then I`d add about 5-6 ice cubes, Optifast and shake it all up. That cut any taste of vitamins in the package. I only had chocolate flavour.
Now I find that I don`t bother with the decaf coffee and drink it with cold tap water (600 ml) and the same amount of ice cubes. I find that I am no longer tasting the vitamins, and tastes like cold chocolate milk.
Good luck on Tuesday.

Congrats!!
I don't mind the OF as well. Like Judy, I too only bought the chocolate. I love mine with the decaf coffee mixed in. I only do that once a day though. The rest of the time I drink it plain. Also if you add crushed ice to it, to me I find it feels more like a meal.
Good luck on your journey!

Hubby has been on it for a few days and he was not looking forward to it at all....but he found a way he really likes it blended in the bullet with a ton of ice and some instant decaf coffee. He is in love with it that way and says it reminds him of an iced Capp from Timmy's. To be honest I was worried as trying it initially made him gag --- but everyone was right about it needing to be cold to drink!

Thanks everyone for your replies.
Today was day one of Optifast and I had to work so I brought 2 chocolate and 2 vanilla with me.
I had a vanilla one and I had a really hard time getting it down..and then I couldn't drink anymore for the rest of the day :o(
I am kinda worried now, not sure what to do. I don't drink coffee or like the taste of it.
I did go buy a Magic Bullet after work though.
Hmmmm...this is going to be a challenge!!
