What is your favorite? I'm thinking about getting a blender bottle and a go stack.

  • And, BTW, if you don't like the texture of the fiber in your protein drink, I also mix it in my Greek yogurt.

    Honestly anything that has cup as the blender has become amazing. I hate cleaning the blender and the cup.

  • I use my 20oz. Blender Bottle every single day. Great for mixing, add ice and then just take it along....no extra stuff to wash and I never had a problem with the powders not mixing well. I especial

I didn't have much luck with a blender bottle. Things didn't mix perfectly and they seemed to put a lot of foam and air into the shake, which I really couldn't tolerate. I ended up going with an immersion blender, which I love. That said, I know lots of people who swear by their blender bottles.

Here's the one I picked:

It comes in a ton of different colors and is super easy to assemble, use, and clean.

I use my 20oz. Blender Bottle every single day. Great for mixing, add ice and then just take it along....no extra stuff to wash and I never had a problem with the powders not mixing well. I especially like it because I add insoluble Fiber to my Protein smoothies and this settles out. I just give it a shake as I'm drinking it to resuspend the fiber.

My mom got me a Body Fortress shaker bottle and it sucks. The powders just glom up in the grid at the top and it's a PIA to clean.

I also have a Hamilton Beach Dual smoothie blender that I only use when I'm adding fruit or berries to my smoothie. After blending I then pour it in my Blender Bottle and drink it from that.

@@Kindle Do you mind sharing what kind of insoluble fiber you use for your smoothies? I need to up my fiber.

@@wascott I used to use Renew Life Organic Triple Fiber (flax seed, oat bran and acacia fiber) which worked great. But now I use a mixture of Bob's Red Mill Ground Flax Seed and Now Foods Apple Fiber. It works just as well but is cheaper and I can buy in bulk from a local whole food store.

I used Garden of Life Raw Fiber for awhile and it worked, but it was expensive and gave everything I mixed it with a thick, gummy texture.

@@Kindle Thanks!

I switched to The Blender Bottle after surgery. I use it daily and I'm happy with it. I used a Nutri blender preop, but after I found it makes a lot of foam. The foam is just too much for my sleeve. I don't have this problem with the bottle. And I add a tbsp of benefiber to each shake.

I love my Vitamix!

I like the premier protein (pre-mixed liquid) best. I've tried the powders and some liquids but it tastes best to me, like chocolate milk! ????

Blender bottles!!! You just shake and go, and they don't leak!! Then to blend my shakes with ice I use an Oster "Osterizer" blender... No ice chunks!!!
