Flavoring my protein shakes

[JeffA70 200]

So, having a shake or two a day at this stage, and have bought tubs of Isopure chocolate (yum), GNC vanilla (yum) and Isopure unflavored (yuck).

Trying to mix flavors up a bit and thought I'd share two things that are pretty delish.

1.) 1/4 teaspoon of peppermint oil in either the chocolate or vanilla. Yeah, it's alcohol, but a miniscule amount in a 12-oz drink. Even a few drops is noticeable flavor!

2.) For a mealtime shake, adding a 1/4 cup of pumpkin, some nutmeg and cinnamon to the vanilla powder with 12 oz of Water or milk. Really good and filling too.

Peppermint oil or peppermint extract?

Try mixing with unsweetened almond milk I find it makes any Protein better.

Peppermint oil or peppermint extract?.

I think I meant to write extract.

Can you use almond milk or light sik milk to mix your shakes?

[JeffA70 200]

Absolutely. I love almond milk. Only downside is that you're not getting much, if any, Protein from that like you are with milk. But adds a good flavor.
