So I made my first ever smoothie today. Used some unflavored Protein powder (and, no, I can't taste it), Fage 2% Greek yogurt (I know why it's a substitute for sour cream), blueberries, milk, ice. I think I needed to use more ice or milk or add some Water to it. Smoothie is good - but really thick - like normal yogurt.

However, I really can taste the sourness of the Greek yogurt. I know others have sweetened it with SF syrups. However, before I buy big bottles of this stuff, I was wanting to try them to see if there are any flavors that I won't like. Does anyone know of where I can get samples of the SF syrups?

Thanks.

World Market sells small 5 oz bottles of Torani syrup. You might also hit some coffee places or gas stations that sell coffee as a lot of them are putting our these sryups for the customers,, great way to get a sample or two

There are smaller bottles available - I have seen them at Gordmans.

Thanks. I'll have to find out if any of those stores are in the area. I don't drink coffee, so I never would have thought about coffee places.

Smart and Final doesn't have samples but their prices on Torani SF syrups are the best I have seen the fruit flavors are the best. You can also use a small amount of crystal light to sweeten it a bit.

I also forgot to mention another trick I do with the shakes. I make sugar free pudding using half non fat milk and half Greek yogurt and add a scoop of protein powder I use chocolate or vanilla and then use 1/3 cup of pudding into my shakes. Very yummy very sweet. Oh I friended you on Facebook Nancy Stern.
