I'm sure each of us has our own preferences, so you just have to keep trying until you find what you like.  My personal absolute FAVORITE is 1 full scoop of Nectar Lemon Ice Tea flavor mixed in 16 ounces of Crystal Light lemonade.  I drink that twice a day and it is like a treat for me - I always drink it over ice and it helps me get my water intake up there, as well as my protein.

I like the Unjury chocolate splendor.  I also love the Chike protein powder.  I add a little instant espresso and sometimes a tsp of cocoa powder (not sweetened) to make it. Mocha coffee shake.  I wish I had tried chicke right after surgery!

I remember posts like this last time I had surgery I ended up buying nectar apple and peach it wasn't really available here in Australia, cost a fortune to find and get and I hated it!  Try to go taste testing some how  in the next few weeks to find what you like.

I think that chocolate or milky style drinks will actually make me want real chocolate so I am going to try New Whey Ready to Drink Fruit Shots, I have read reviews for post ops who mix it in similar flavoured sugar free cordial (kool aid for example) or in water downed juice.  I found a place here that I can buy single ones from - It has a whopping 42g of protein in a 100ml.

Whetever you do, don't buy anything expensive before you are sure you love it!  Or you will be like me with these massive tubs in the pantry for years :D
