Making your own protein shake vs ready to drink protein shake? Which one is best for pre op diet..?

Your individual tastes will determine that answer. High quality bariatric shakes and/or the protein powders will generally cost more, and the ready to drink ones are a bit more expensive.

Many of the ready to drink ones I've tried do not have the bariatric quality protein, and also seem to have horrible chemical tastes and aftertastes.

It's important for you to find at least one high quality protein shake that you hopefully will like or at least can tolerate well, as periodically even post op liquid diet you will need to be on a liquid diet from time to time after fills.
