Hey everyone - I'm trying to drink my protein drinks (I always blend lots of ice cubes in mine with sugar free syrup and frozen strawberries or blueberries) but sometimes I can't drink all of it right away. If I put it in a glass and put it in the refrigerator I don't like the consistency - I like the little ice cube pieces to remain. So last couple of days I make it and then put it in a steel thermos and I swear it will stay COLD all day long - I just keep sipping it and when it's gone I make another. I find I'm drinking more protein this way.

That's an awesome idea. I didn't even think of that. I bought one of these things just to keep my drinks cold. I found they came in handy when I had to to be on the go, and hated having a watered down drink because the ice melts.

I mix up my protein shake in the morning and put it in the freezer while I shower and get ready for work- about an hour. The shake is good and cold with small ice crystals. I have an hour drive into work so my shake stays cold the whole time!

Thanks for the tip. I was just thinking today that I needed something to keep my drinks cold. I completely forgot about a thermal.

This just made my day!

okay i know this sounds ridiculous, but i have a GIANT THERMOS from ... ahem.. 7-11! It's for keeping slurpees cold but it works for my smoothies and they last like 9 hours, it holds a coffe pot full. I swear. Great for a fridge pitcher of sorts, nothing gets runny in there ever.

i make my protein drink then look for my ex wife and have her stick her finger in it cause the bitch is soo COLD!!!!:thumbup1::thumbup:

I swear by my little thermos. Got it at target and it has a little sipper spout and a snap down lid that works great when I need to reshake it to mix things up. I take it everywhere with me. My kids (teenagers) refer to it as mom's "ba-ba"

Silver Lining - I'm getting sleeved soon and I guess I'm lucky that I will be in my protein shake phase during the summer, icy frozen shakes are welcome during hot summer months!!
