Flavoring my protein shakes

So, having a shake or two a day at this stage, and have bought tubs of Isopure chocolate (yum), GNC vanilla (yum) and Isopure unflavored (yuck).

Trying to mix flavors up a bit and thought I'd share two things that are pretty delish.

1.) 1/4 teaspoon of peppermint oil in either the chocolate or vanilla. Yeah, it's alcohol, but a miniscule amount in a 12-oz drink. Even a few drops is noticeable flavor!

2.) For a mealtime shake, adding a 1/4 cup of pumpkin, some nutmeg and cinnamon to the vanilla powder with 12 oz of Water or milk. Really good and filling too.

Peppermint oil or peppermint extract?.

I think I meant to write extract.

Can you use almond milk or light sik milk to mix your shakes?

Absolutely. I love almond milk. Only downside is that you're not getting much, if any, protein from that like you are with milk. But adds a good flavor.
