Crystal Light and Isopure Protein Drinks

Whoever mentioned adding Crystal Light to Isopure Protein Drinks, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!! I can now handle any of the protein drinks after I add in a little Crystal Light.  Right now I'm sipping on some Isopure Alpine Punch with Cherry Limeade added. It's soo delicious!  I can seriously drink this all day.  Plus 40 grams of protein in 20 oz, SWEET!!

THANKS AGAIN!

really?? that works? cause I have not been able to get down any protien and my husband keeps pestering me. But just the thought makes me gag. how do you do it? Add the Crystal Light mix to the isopure or already mixed?? help me please!!!

I use these drinks:

And add in some Crystal Light. I find that the store brands are just as good. I use Target's store brand often.

I really like these drinks when I'm on the go as I add lots of ice, throw it in my thermos, shake it really good and it will stay cool while I'm out doing errands and I get tons of protein which is such a bonus.

You can also get Vanilla and add any sugarfree jello to your blender.   I like lemon or lime as it adds a little "sour" aspect to the drinks.   Start with a teaspoon you can always add more.   Good luck.    Take some deep breaths and relax.

I need to add Crystal Light to mine too in order to drink it.  But I do find that it causes a little of the protein to settle to the bottom.  My real problem with the Isopure drinks is that after a while I get protein "gunk" stuck in the back of my throat that I finally have to spit out.  But still, 40 g of protein in one bottle is hard to beat!

It gets stuck in the back of my throat too, I usually have to drink some water to get that protein down. I know it sounds soo disgusting, but I need every single bit of protein that I can get :)

I'm glad to know the crystal light actually works - I was sceptical.  My nut told me to try the isopure that way, because they are horrendous on their own.  I'm gagging now just thinking about them.  I will certainly try the crystal light trick now.  Thanks for the info!

It wasn't me, it was some other brain here on OH that mentioned it. I think it might have been Nik, but I can't remember for the life of me.  I hate hate hate the smell of these drinks, but the CL actually takes that smell away for me. 

If you were at the LB coffee on Saturday, I mentioned mixing isopure with crystal light or with your cranberry, crangrape, etc....

I buy the premixed isopure at GNC and my favorite flavor is the grape.  I can handle drinking the grape on its own with ice.  Sometimes I freeze the bottle (small plastic bottles, 15 g protein) for a while to get it nice and slushy.  This is great if we are on the freeway to somewhere.  

I wasn't there unfortunately :( I need to try some grape mixed with with maybe cranberry or something!
