Newbie here (1 week in today). Is there a hack for the vanilla drink mix? I've been adding 1oz of Walden farms cream to it to try to cover the aftertaste (I found the pina colada to be a little better but still have the aftertaste). I like the convenience of the drink in the morning. Update: no. I'm not interested in adding coffee. My morning coffee is sacred (I have 1 cup) and I don't like flavored anything in it.

@sudiesudnor that looks delicious! Doubt I could stick to 1 portions at the moment. maybe after I'm on program for a bit longer

@springclean You'd be surprised :) Because you're getting the protein in one serving, you will feel more full than a regular carby piece of pie or cake! You've got this, just think 'outside the box' literally lol! We have all kinds of things like this with Redcliff Pharmasave and Dea's Recipes to help out.

I add it to cold coffee with ice. I am not a coffee drinker but love the taste of this. Sometimes if I am near a Tim Hortons I will get 2 shots if expresso over ice then add the shake. It is delicious.

Try mixing it with Orange Drink Mix - not sure what ratio but I have a client who loves the blend of flavors. Have you tried the Ready Made Vanilla Drink to see if it fixes your aftertaste problem? Also using ice in it - after you mix in blender bottle with a little less water, place in blender with ice cubes. Tasty milkshake. Add a bit of vanilla extract.

I had to go with the chocolate because I just couldn’t like the taste. I finished off my box by putting cinnamon in the mix.

If you're talking the premixed vanilla drink in the bottles, I add it to several ice cubes with a tbsp of unsweetened cocoa powder and whip it up in my Ninja. It comes out like a milkshake and is great for my later in the day.

If you like coffee you probably would like the whipped coffee. 2 tablespoon instant espresso, 1-2 tablespoons sugar substitute and 2 tablespoons water. Mix with a hand mixer for 2-3 minutes then put on top of the vanilla ready to drink . Delicious!
