Please review : Isopure Cookies and Cream Powder

[AmyInOrlando 348]

I bought a tub of this at the Vitamin Shoppe. It was $49.95. 2 scoops per serving, 22 servings per container. Each serving has 50 Grams of Protein, 210 calories, 0 carbs, 0 sugar, and 1 Gm of fat. My question is.... has anyone here used it, and how does it taste? I was thinking I could use 1 scoop as a serving. Should I mix it with skim milk, almond milk or Water? Which tastes best? Before I open the canister I'd like to know how it tastes, and if it's worth the money.

Honestly, I liked the Syntrax Nectars cookie + cream version better. I have 2 tubs in my kitchen, one open one back up. I mix the desert sounding ones with milk - so vanilla torte, chocolate truffle, double stuffed cookie and cappichino.

My go to flavor is the roadside lemonade- it's pleasantly lemony but not strong flavor. Like watered down lemon Jello. No funky after taste and when you go to drink it the smell is once again like jelly no musky scent. I "spike" my shake with either mio, Torani sugar free syrups or crystal light.

a little advice on mixing. Put the liquid in the cup/shaker and then pour in the powder, put on lid and shake. This has gotten the least clumps. Oh, and avoid the blender if your not into foam. I think stiring with a spoon may give you the least foam, but I just use a Blender Bottle I got at target for $7.

If the Vitamin shoppe is near your house look by the cash register for the little sample packs/single serve packs of Syntrax nectars to try out before you commit to the big tub.

Also, Vitamin Shoppe will price match others and itself online, which at my store was $4- cheaper than the shelf prices.

I also got a little formula holder from the baby isle at the Walmart that has 3 compartments to hold Protein powder and a easy pour spout to throw in your purse and take with you. The packets are expensive and hard to open without sissors, the thing I got was $5-. I pack all the same flavor and use the lemonade so I can mix with Water which I can buy anywhere.

I love the syntax nectar Cookies and cream and chocolate truffle. They also have an unflavored. I add it to sugar free fat free pudding. Makes a great high Protein dessert.
