Best Flavor Nectar for Water

[girlrfriday 71]

I'd like to try the nectar in water.... any opinions on the best flavor?

You mean the Syntrax Nectars? If so, there are SOOO many flavors. It is going to be a personal thing. I prefer chocolate truffle and Crystal Sky. I have heard lots of good things about fuzzy navel. The strawberry kiwi was good to me, but really sweet. The only one I really didn't like was orange cream--it was just strange.

BJ's bariatrics sells sample packs in quantity of 11 and you can choose which ones you want to try. They come quickly too.

I thought they all tasted disgusting.

The caribbean cooler is pretty decent in Water, also--and I have to say I kind of love the Double Stuffed Cookie, but since I'm pre-op, I mixed that one with 1% milk, which miiiiiight have changed the experience a bit.

So far I have had the wild cherry flavor and it was ok, reminded me of Jello Water. I didn't really care for the fuzzy navel but I will still drink it. Currently I am sipping on the lemonade and it seemd to be ok as well. I think i like them because they aren't sweet. I bought the variety pack from BJ Bariatrics.

To me, I thought most of the fruit juice flavors were disgusting. The only exception was the fuzzy navel, but I wasn't THAT crazy about it. I haven't tried crystal sky.

I have in my possession strawberry mousse, vanilla bean torte, and chocolate truffle. The best one with Water is the chocolate truffle as it tastes like a yoo hoo. The rest taste better with milk, or milk and kefir/yogurt.

Once I get to the stage when I can add fruit I am sure that my taste buds may change a bit.

Fuzzy Navel, Roadside Lemonade, Lemon Tea, caribbean cooler - I'm 8 weeks post op and still use them. I mix with 16 oz Water and some ice. Saved me during those first 3 weeks when I couldn't take any more vanilla or chocolate!!

The best lemonade I had was when I mixed Unjury's strawberry Sorbet with crystal light lemonade. That was like WOW, no texture change and a yummy strawberry lemonade drink.

if you mix these in Water are they clear? Just wondering if they are ok for the first week post op?

I was only on clear liquid the first two days when I was in the hospital but was ok'd for full liquid on day 3 and I started them then. nectar is a high quality Protein with few impurities and the way it's formulated it is safe early on. So is Isopure RTD but I found them pretty intense flavor wise. The nectar is pretty strong for me too so I would either use more Water or I bought some unflavored Nectar from BariatricAdvantage.com and would mix them half and half. But as always, you should follow your doctor/NUT guidelines because they know your personal history and we do not.

nectar is one of the options given to us in the hospital as a first drink.

Roadside Lemonade, pink grapefruit and strawberry/kiwi are my favs pre-op.

Who knows post-op?

Just gave in this afternoon, and bought the full sized container of Double-Stuffed Cookie Syntrax Nectar. I'm enjoying it when mixed with Water rather than milk--I like it a lot more than I expected to! Had some as a substitute for after-dinner snacking, and it totally satisfied the urge for sweets.

Agree that the nectar sweets including double stuff cookie and chocolate truffle are really good with water!!! They are probably a reason for my success to lose my sweet tooth. Still drinking Syntrax Nectar sweet shakes 10 months post op.

I REALLY wanted to try the Double stuf flavor. What does it taste like exactly? I assume it mixes just as well as the others, right?
