MsShaunaMarie 82 Posted October 31, 2012 Hey guys and gals! I received the sample pack of Syntrax Nexctar to try out the different flavors.So tonight I made a pack of the Apple flavored and mixed it with 16oz of ice cold Water. and it takes awful. Am I doing something wrong? Im almost afraid to try any of the other flavors cus this one tastes so bad. Should I have only used 8oz it says you can used between 8-16oz of water. How do you mix yours? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How do you mix yours? Thanks! I didn't care for the fruity juice flavors much myself! I think the only one I liked was the cherry and the lemonade was doable. I think those would probably taste better if you made an icee out of them with a blender! The creamy flavors like mocha, chocolate and vanilla are really good! 3 AaronRene14, TwinsMama and POlkadot1 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Readytolose2012 88 Posted October 31, 2012 I agree creamy with 8 oz almond milk. 1 TwinsMama reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
funkeechiggen 135 Posted October 31, 2012 I meant to say Cappuccino, not mocha, btw!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CowgirlJane 14,260 Posted October 31, 2012 I didn't care for the apple, but I thought their chocolate truffle and vanilla were really good.... well, by Protein Drink standards. I wound up buying tubs of those. For the fruity ones, I mixed them with ice in my magic bullet so they were kinda like slushies. There were pretty good - but I still liked the choc and vanilla the best. I guess I must not be too crazy about them as I still have several packets from that sample pack! Shoulda had them over the summer as I just get too cold now having icey drinks like that! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AaronRene14 18 Posted October 31, 2012 I meant to say cappuccino, not mocha, btw!!! love the cappuccino myself. Not much of a milk/smoothie drinker, but i mixed it with some vanilla greek yougert and YUM! definitely going to try it with some warm soy milk and see whats up. 1 Frza reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shrinkydinkme 221 Posted October 31, 2012 The only fruity one I like was the carribean cooler. Also I would blend it in un-iced Water first and then add the ice cubes. Found that most Protein Drinks do not mix as well in liquid that is too hot or too cold. I liked the Cappuccino latte for a couple months but now it is too sweet for me.

MsShaunaMarie 82 Posted October 31, 2012 Thanks everyone Ill keep trying them and see if I like any more of the flavors! Apple was a no no lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tstorm1070 192 Posted October 31, 2012 thats why its awesome to get the sample pack that way your not wasting your money on the tubs. I personally like them a little weaker. I mix them in about 20-24 oz of tap Water. I then freeze them til slushy and drink them in a mixer container with the whisk ball. I def would do them in a blender but its much easier to freeze and do it that way so maybe try adding a little bit more water and doing then either with crushed ice, blender or frozen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oregondaisy 2,021 Posted October 31, 2012 16 of liquid is too much. They are kind of watery to begin with, compared to other Protein Drinks. I've added sf pudding mixes to some of them to thicken them up, cause I like my Protein drinks to be like milk shakes, with ice in the blender. 1 kmoore reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tstorm1070 192 Posted October 31, 2012 I believe it says on there 8-16oz? is what you can mix them with. I wish I liked milkshakes so I could eat the creamy ones with milk. For some reason with the milk it grosses me out and I love milk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oregondaisy 2,021 Posted October 31, 2012 yeah, I never use real milk. I use almond milk, or sometimes I use half Hood Carb countdown, and half Water.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Giselle3264 175 Posted November 1, 2012 I tried strawberry Kiwi and Fuzzy Navel. I love them both! I mix in room temperature Water and add ice cubes. I didn't care for the Carribean Cooler as much. Those are the only ones I've tried. I would like to try the chocolate or cappuccino but I'm so tired of trying Protein drinks that I'll stick with these for awhile. 1 MsShaunaMarie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
