In the evening when I fix my lunch for the next day, I mix up 2 shakes with 1/2 cold coffee (from the morning of that day) and 1/2 milk (as a bonus, I get my caffeine mix straight away). Sometimes I add a banana with it. I put them in the fridge and have one pre-workout as I workout in the mornings, and take the other to work that day. I have had better tasting shakes this way rather than mix straight away. I also often add a spoonful of natural peanut butter. The combinations there really taste great. The coffee gives it a mocha coffee flavor, really good! This is regular chocolate flavor, I have yet to try the chocolate peanut flavor.

Yes, you can mix it up in advance. In fact, if you are not mixing it up at least 2 hours in advance, you are getting an inferior tasting shake. It takes that long for the powder to actually dissolve.

If you drink it that night you should be okay, as long as you cover it. I think once you get up to 24 hours and behind it would start to diminish in taste. I have done what you are asking about and had no such issue

Can you get one of those blender ball shakers? They work really well (we have 4 now). You can prob go to the farthest room away from her and shake away!(I go to the bathroom to mix the shakes when I don't want to wake anyone up.)

It is very tasty for a protein mix. I mix 2 scoops with 1 cup of water and 1 cup of Vanilla Soy milk and it taste like a milkshake!

I have completely substituted 1 of these shakes for lunch every day. I suppose you have to be disciplined to do this. In addition to saving me the cost of daily lunch, they are able to take the edge off. After a while you get used to having 1 shake and you don't desire the normal lunch anymore. I have lost 8 pounds so far doing this and it seems to work for me...it is the easiest path of least resistance. I'm male, 55 active but not as much as I used to be...I still want to take off a few more pounds...not sure if I will have to do anything more focused like head back to the gym.

The protein in the shake is to speed up muscle recovery after a workout. It won't lead to bulky muscle unless you workout with constantly increasing heavy weights.

It has a slight texture to it. I drink it almost daily after I work out and I find it to be the best protein drink I've used. I highly recommend it. I use the Vanilla flavor. I find it easy to drink.

No it doesn't taste much like Vanilla. This stuff is really good quality, so I've basically sacrificed taste in order to drink this. I add a little bit of cinnamon and it helps. There are so many chemicals and bad things in other protein powders so I'd much rather be putting this in my body! I've been drinking it for months and now I'm so used to it, it's just routine. I imagine if you use a blender and make a smoothie with it, it'll be great. I just use it with water and cinnamon.

Mine has been open for a month with no ill effects. It's dry so I'm thinking it'll last a long time. If in doubt you could keep it refrigerated. I like the product for my protein shake. I get the PB flavor without all the calories. I also like that there are no added ingredients.

Not really, it's a mass gainer so you're looking at 1200-1600 calorie shakes. If you take it with milk it's not far from muscle milk, but if you take it with water it taste kind of like that yahoo chocolate drink. I would still order it if you're looking to gain mass. Nothing beats that price for that taste.

Could you be a little more specific with your question? Here's a little info, it has 20 something grams of protein, drink it as a meal replacement. It is delicious. Taste like a frappa from mcdonalds. It has helped me lose weight. Most of the time I drink it blended, I have drank hot and it taste like hot chocolate. Let me know what other questions you may have

There is really no taste. I add it to a Green Grass mix and it does not effect the taste. A protein shake should be just as good. You will be glad you tried it.

It stayed mixed but if I were to use it in a smoothie/protein drink I would heat it for 5 seconds just to make it easier to mix ( I just use a spoon to mix,not a blender)Either way it just tastes GOOD!

I have never had that problem. I do however make sure I shake any premixed drink well to be sure that everything is blended well before I drink it. You can also try Pure Protein in the can.

I've not had that happen. I usually wash it out after having coffee in it but on the few occasions that I've forgotten, it doesn't have an after-taste effect (like in a protein shaker).

I am sorry, K. Vee, I do not know the answer to your question. My assumption--and I repeat "assumption"--is that it is denatured in the pasteurization process, but I've not felt it to be an important issue for me specifically. I am not looking for "results" as a young bodybuilder would. I am a senior male, placed on a zero-fat diet by a cardiovascular surgeon, following a fem-pop bypass in my left leg. I have difficulty in getting sufficient protein in my diet, thus the supplement. I have found that I can keep up very strenuous activity all day when I use the whey protein supplement, which was my goal.

I mix it with milk (preferred) or water. I stack this with BCAAs, creatine, NO, and pre-workout. You should read up on how much protein your body can metabolize within a certain time frame. Wouldn't want to waste any excess nutrients by over-stacking.Good luck!

Don't be concerned with how full the container is--it's irrelevant. All that matters is how many servings are in the container. So, look at the nutrition label. The very first line is serving size, which is 2 scoops. The next line is servings per container; in my 1.4 pounds container, there are 14 servings. If you drink 2 shakes per day, the container will last you seven days. So, get 4 containers to last you for a month. you get a discount if you sign up for a repeating purchase. PS This is--hands down--the best shake I've ever tasted, and I make it with water. I prefer the chocolate. Hope this helps--Zebrina

Yes, you can add it to a protein shake/smoothie. I did notice a very mild flavor difference but not enough to bother me at all. I recommend that you use a blender otherwise it won't mix very well . . . hope this is helpful to you.
