Ok, maybe I'm just slow.. or not "protein adventurous"

But I made Syntrax Nectar Grapefruit with almond milk today, just in the shaker.. It was flipping good. 
I did this with the Crystal sky too, with the addition of a container of Carbmaster Tropical fruit yogurt too.. it was really, really yummy.. All this time, I've used water and never tried it any other way.. Geeze, I was trying to use these up as I wasn't all that into them.. now, I realize I enjoy them this way. Sometimes I just feel a little derpy.

 Almond milk is my favorite.  Walmart also carries a brand called "So Delicious" that has 5g of protein per cup.  It's not the best, but it is better than the 1g that normal almond milk has.  Tastes just as good. :)

I'm not very protein adventurous either, mainly because when I add any kind of milk to protein powders, it amplifies the icky whey taste for me. But I haven't tried almond milk yet.

I LOL'd at your use of the word derpy. I love that word. Ha!

Hmmm...it isn't just you. I have a giant tub of Nectar Grapefruit and I'm just not into it. In fact, I was gonna toss it when I moved a couple of weeks ago but I just couldn't.

It never occured to me to try it with almond milk. Now I need to! Thanks! :)

I still have most of nectar samples. I tried one or two w/ water ages ago and didn't like them. I never tossed the rest so maybe I'll try them w/ almond milk. Thanks for the idea!

 Early out, I couldn't tolerate any of the nectars and just used water. I still have some samples left. I think I will try them with almond milk, since that is what I use for most of my shakes anyway.  Thanks for the suggestion.

I also like the word, "derpy."  LOL!!

I really liked the Nectars early on when I was drinking so much of my protein, but now I'm completely over them. I LOVE the idea of mixing them with low carb yogurt though, or maybe greek yogurt?
I had a couple of tubs lingering in my stash. Unfortunately, I gave away the fuzzy navel (which I think would have been yummy in yogurt) and kept the lemon tea. What was I thinking???

Adding milk to those flavors is like the old 50/50 bar thing.  Remember Orangesicles??  Mmmm lol.
