I like the Protein2o protein waters. They taste like Kool-aid. Not quite as sweet as some of the others, but definitely still sweet. And they don't leave a film in your mouth like Isopure.

Try to add some Mio or other sugar/calorie free flavoring to it, might help.

Thank you for your responses. This forum is very helpful and I am learning a lot.

The only premier protein water I was able to get down was the lemonade. I’ve tried others as well and will not buy again. I’m sticking to shakes and new whey protein shots.
If you can tolerate salty things, bone broth comes in lots of flavors. Chicken is one I can deal with. It’s loaded with protein and I water it down because I’m not a huge fan of salted foods/flavors.

Bone broth is great. I've been testing stuff out pre-surgery so I won't be experimenting too much when I am feeling crummy post-op. I tried one of the protein soups (15 grams of protein) but mixing it with 8 oz. of bone broth (10 grams of protein) instead of water. As many total grams of protein as a shake in a slightly smaller portion and it tastes way better than a shake. The only problem is that this is a high salt combo, so depending on your blood pressure it may not be the way to go.

Protein2o coconut and one of the berry flavors. Taste really good. I don't drink the premixed protein drinks. Use powder and mix with water. Knocks down the fake sweet perfectly but still just a bit creamy.
