Directions how to mix vitalady samples
Either one. I usually prefer milk but some brands/flavors go better in water. Like, when I got samples of Syntrax Nectar roadside lemonade and lemon ice tea, those would not be right in milk.
Please note: I AM NOT A DOCTOR. If you want medical advice, talk to your doctor. Whatever I post, there is probably some surgeon or other health care provider somewhere that disagrees with me. If you want to know what your surgeon thinks, then ask him or her. Check out my blog.
Everyone mixes them differently, I think that is why there is no "right" way. Like Kelly said, either milk or water, as much or as little as you choose (depending on how thick you like your shakes) with ice or without, with yogurt or without - you get the idea.
My very favorite way to mix my favorite shake is to throw a couple of handfuls of berries in the magic bullet and blend, put in my favorite vanilla protein powder and some SF vanilla pudding along with a shot of Mexican or Madagascar vanilla and blend again. Then add 5 or 6 ice cubes and blend until they are blended up. YUMMY!
Best of luck finding out what works for you. Oh, and don't get discouraged - it took me two years to find a way to make a shake that I actually liked (above). Up until then, I would mix my powder with about an ounce or two of water - just enough to make it liquid - and drink it like a "shot". Couldn't stand the stuff and never believed anybody who said it could be any different. Then some newbie came along about 6 months ago and gave me the basic recipe above. With a little tweaking, I was hooked!

There should have been a packet of paper with a pink sheet on the front?
We suggest starting with 4 oz of water, taste, adjust to taste. Add ice or not. But start with just 4 oz. No point in forming the habit of HAVING to add a buncha junk because after 5-10 yrs it becomes an excuse not to take it
