  4. I'm not sure if you're asking about Protein drinks or not but have you ever tried Syntrax nectar lattes, cappuccino flavor? It's awesome! and taste pretty much just like those Starbucks Frappuccino mocha bottles you get at the supermarket I make mine with cold fat free or 2% milk yum yum and sometimes I blend it with ice... where do you buy those they sound yummy! I was originally asking about coffee for days I can't seem to wake up since we can no longer drink pop.. But I'm all for learning about good Protein shakes, I haven't found one that I like yet
