How Do You Make Protein Drinks Thick/thicker Or Like A Malt



Recommended Posts

Hello All! I was wondering, how do you make a Protein Drink thick/or thicker? Like a malt consistency? I gotta make these drinks tasty some how. When I put it in the blender or the magic bullet with milk or Water or juice with ice, the top half always comes out FOAMY, YUKKKKKK :-/ !!!!!!

Thank You in advance. I appreciate any info or help.

maybe add some greek yogurt to the blender? (like an ice cream replacement if you were making a milkshake)?

I have not figured this out either. The ones I make in the blender are foamy which i hate. I know mix unflavored in a shaker cup with orange juice and shake it up really good and drink it with a straw so I dont get the foam. It works for me. Unjury separates out and you just get the juice from the bottom and I stop before I get the foam but Jarrow brand unflavored stays in solution, doesnt separate and is not really foamy at all. I like it the best. It took me months to find this combo that worked for me. I am a OJ lover though and it doesnt change the taste of it at all!

It's always foamy in the blender for me too and I hate the foam. I make the drink in the blender without the Protein powder, then mix the Protein Powder in at the end. I mix the Protein Powder with a little of the liquid (milk, soy milk, coffee) first so it blends in better.

Put ice in a blender, then your liquids & Protein powder... Nice & thick like a Wendy's Frosty only better for you! Also try adding sugar free pudding mix (only a little) it will give you more flavor.

No fail method....add a piece of banana. Be careful not to put in too much ice -3 cubes should do it. Blend til thick.

I couldn't deal with the foam, so I stick with the ready to drink shakes. Way better!

I noticed that too and set it in the fridge for 1/2 hour then just shake it up. But that is if you have time. I also add some ice too before you blend. it helps.

I put 1/3 of a bananna in. I know I'm not sposto have anything but the drinks, but the plain drinks were unpalatable.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
