I add 1/4 cup skim milk to the chocolate, otherwise I can't stand how thick it is. Tastes like regular chocolate milk then. I add sugar free salted caramel or hazelnut Torani syrup to vanilla. I want to try raspberry syrup next time.

Sounds good, it's just been recently that I could tolerate the shakes but have gotten tired of the same flavors. I have put strawberry syrup in the vanilla with ice and blended it, that was good but need to vary it or I know I won't be able to stick with it long.

I put a 1/2 tablespoon of Peanut Butter into my chocolate or vanilla protien and blend with a ice. It is a great flavor if you are a peanut butter holic..

I'm now on soft diet, and I can do fruit in my shakes, so I tried banana in the vanilla, it was my favorite pre-op, but it's way too sweet post-op. Your taste buds seem to change a bit. I just started adding a tsp of decaf coffee granueles, and unsweetened chocolate, and it's pretty good. I'm really not feeling the shakes as much as before either. Good luck!

I added peanut flour to mine and it tasted great. I have also added frozen peaches to the vanilla.

Try PB2, peanut butter flavored protein powder. Available at whole foods

Thanks for the ideas. I do have some pb2 ill try that. I also found today at Walmart a sugar free liquid milk enhancer( made with splenda). They had cookies and cream, banana Strawberry, and chocolate. I'm going to give this a try as well.

The milk enhancers I tried the banana in the chocolate shake and the strawberry in the vanilla. It surprised me at how much better it made the shakes taste. Blended with ice it covered up some of that protein smell/flavor. ( they are made with splenda). But no more than you use of it, Im ok with that.

I like orange sugar free syrup in both my vanilla and my chocolate, and love almond flavor in my vanilla - even better warmed up! (Think marzipan.)
