I find the taste unbearable, I just mix it with water and drink it straight up before a jog to give me energy. Any tips to make it easier to drink?

Turn it into a latte. 1 cup hot milk, 1 teaspoon matcha and 1 splenda packet. Still not as good as Starbuck's but it goes down a lot easier! :)

You need to add some stevia if your watching your sugar intake. Or make up some simple syrup to it. (you can make a batch and keep it in the fridge) It's bitter and drinking it straight is not going to taste good.

I make a protein shake with it. 2 scoops vanilla whey protein, couple tbsp matcha to taste., one packet equal to cut bitterness , ice and blend.

use honey as a sweetener- natural, healthy, good natural proteins in honey and then I add a little milk

When too bitter for my taste I double the amount of water I use and then add lemon and Pure Via (stevia blend) You'll definitely be hydrated! Hope this helps because it is good for us.

I add it to my smoothies; i am addicted to Carnation Breakfast Essentials, Rich Milk Chocolate Powder. I use 1 package of Carnation mix, 1 frozen banana, 1/4 - 1/2 cup fresh-frozen blueberries, handful of raw almonds, 1/2 cup or more of almond milk, few ice cubes and 1 tsp Macha Green Tea and blend in the blender till smooth. Yummy!

I drink it like hot tea and add a flavored coffee creamer. You could probably do it like a cold latte, but it dissolves best in very hot water.

I usually just drink it with any liquid like water, coffee or juice. It doesn't taste bad at all so it's really easy to just mix it with anything.

I mix mine with any juice or protein shake. Dont take it by itself. If you still dont like rhe taste in a deink, pinch your nose while drinking and you cat taste anything.....not a joke.

Mix it in a blender! Always it will turn just about anything into a shake, or tastes like a shake!

It tastes a bit like cooked eggwhite to me if you only mix it with water. Needs to be in a flavored beverage to avoid aftertaste, at least for my tastebuds. It's good high-quality protein, though. I think that using it in recipes is the best idea.

I was directed to mix with 8 oz of water, drink then or sit in frig overnight. Hate the taste.

I am on my first bottle and I found the taste by itself to be absolutely repulsive. I mix it with homemade lemonade (w/stevia) or grapefruit water or even chocolate milk. The Mg changes the flavor a little but at least they make it drinkable.

Never have tried the taste, I use it for circulation issues. Sorry couldn't have a better answer for you

Water tastes pretty good if you are trying to get only the nutrition provided by the powder, but my favorite is mixing with whole milk. The extra calories from the milk help me put more weight on and it makes the the drink more like a shake. You can also use 2% or skim milk, but the less fat, the closer the taste gets to if you were to mix with water. I hope that helps! I love the powder and it tastes great, especially for the price.

Yes Mike. This is my regimen. I mix it 1 cup milk 1 cup water. Tblsp of Honey, Peanut butter, banana, berries and a couple of spoons of cinnamon. If you don't this taste, maybe try the vanilla or chocolate. I've been doing this for a year now. Every morning.

It tastes, like, well...dirt. I never just "eat" it. I add it smoothies, hot cereal or if I'm in a hurry, just filtered drinking water. I mix one heaping teaspoon to my pick of the day and mix it in.

Yeah, it doesn't dissolve very well. I put it in water and just keep stirring it between sips.

This is very dark chocolate drink and it isn't sweet at all. I always add some sweet and low or splenda to it. And I cut it from four tablespoons to three. Also use almond milk instead of water. I could even try two tablespoons instead of three and still be palatable i'll bet.

I don't notice the taste that much, but I'm pretty good about stomaching health food. I currently put it my shakes. I put one scoop of Garden of Life powder, 2 scoops of vanilla protein powder, a handful of frozen berries, and pina colada flavored fish oil. It still tastes healthy and green, but it's pretty good.

Water! Like others have said just drink it fast. Maybe you'll come to enjoy it. Otherwise I'll mix it in with a protein shake or maybe with a greens powder. Throw em all together and you got yourself a nice little meal replacement. Find what works for you.

I mix it with something called Joint Juice. You can buy it in cases from Costco, or from places like Walgreens in some areas. It is much easier to drink, plus the joint juice has chondroitin/glucosine which helps your body's joints!

I just mix it with water. It taste perfectly fine but don't let it sit once you mix it.
