That's why I use a blender bottle (which has a little whisk "orb" in it to break up the lumps) or mix it by hand (so I can crush the lumps between the back of the spoon and the side of the cup/glass)...
(Using a blender will get rid of lumps but requires too much cleanup and makes the shake very foamy.)

You don't drown by falling in the water. You drown by staying there.
I've found if I pu****er first, then ice, then the little whisk ball, then the powder, then close it up and shake, that works better than anything.. The wisk ball and ice cubes help stir and break it up.

I mix mine in the blender, but on low speed and with ice. I like mine thicker and very cold. I pour it in my shaker cup and sip it on the way to work. When I mix it in my coffee, I avoid lumps by mixing the powder with a small amount of cold water and then stirring into my coffee 'til smooth. That would probably help you with the lumps too.

WATER FIRST.... I've learned... it's easier to clean the bottle if the liquid goes in first.... also seems to help wtih the lumps...
and then shake shake shake do you have a blender ball (wire or plastic) in the shaker bottle? if not throw in a few ice cubes
or use a blender

I'm not sure where my mind was this morning... but I looked at the title & wondered "what lumps"? I've got all sorts of lumpy parts with my weight loss...LOL!!! I want to get those lumps out, too!
All that being said... I use a Ninja blender. Water, ice, & decaf coffee crystals. Whirl. Then add the protein powder & SF syrup. Whirl.
I pour it in my larger blender bottle for the morning trip to the Y. Also I rise all the parts of the blender under ho****er right way.
